The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) have reported the loss of five more soldiers in Gaza. Three of them fell in the intense fighting in southern Gaza, an area marked by fierce clashes.
Additionally, one soldier succumbed to injuries sustained last week, and another member of the elite counter-terrorism Duvdevan Unit, known for undercover operations, was among those who lost their lives.
Despite Israel’s military superiority, its forces face vulnerability to ambushes by militants utilizing underground tunnels in civilian zones.
