Palestinian fighters kill three Israeli army majors in northern Gaza
JERUSALEM (AA) – Three Israeli army majors were killed in clashes with fighters from Palestinian resistance forces in northern Gaza, the army admitted on Thursday.
The Israeli army said in a statement that three reservist officers were killed during clashes with Palestinian fighters in northern Gaza.
The three casualties were reserve officers with the rank of major from Logistical Support Unit 5460, which is part of the Israeli 460th Armored “Bnei Or” brigade, the statement said.
According to the Yedioth Ahronoth daily, the three were killed in an explosive device blast in the northern Gazan neighborhood of Jabalia.
Military figures released by the army showed that 734 soldiers have been killed and 4,700 others injured since Israel launched its ongoing war on Gaza in October last year.
Regional tensions have escalated due to Israel’s brutal offensive on the Gaza Strip, during which it has killed over 42,000 people, mostly women and children.
Israel has been launching deadly strikes across Lebanon since Sept. 23, which have killed more than 1,323 people and injured over 3,700 others.
