An Israeli officer was killed in an apparent accident in the southern Gaza Strip on July 10, the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) announced.
The slain officer was a team commander in the Golani Brigade’s reconnaissance unit. According to an IDF probe, the incident that claimed his life took place during an ongoing offensive in Khan Younis.
Troops were operating in buildings suspected to be used by fighters of the Hamas Movement, rigging them up with mines in order to demolish them. Shortly after the buildings were mined, an explosion occurred, and the officer was hit, possibly by shrapnel or debris. He was declared dead a short while later, according to the military.
Separately, the IDF announced that two soldiers were wounded, moderately and lightly, by anti-tank fire on a tank during operations in the area of Jabalia in northern Gaza on the same day.
The death of the officer brought the number of Israeli troops killed since the start of the large-scale offensive against Hamas, codenamed “Operation Gideon’s Chariots,” to 32.
The IDF has been facing increasing resistance in southern and northern Gaza, with Hamas taking the lead in attacks on Israeli troops.
On July 10, the al-Qassam Brigades, the military wing of Hamas, released video footage showing an attack that took place in Khan Younis a day earlier. During the attack, Hamas fighters shot and killed a soldier, a heavy engineering operator serving in the ranks of the combat engineering unit of the IDF’s Southern Command, from point blank range and attempted to snatch his body.
In total, Israel’s toll in ground operations in Gaza and along its border since the start of ground operations there has reached 451.
Despite the mounting losses, Israel is showing no willingness to end the war on Gaza, which has so far claimed the lives of close to 60,000 Palestinians. Currently, 65 percent of the Strip is occupied by the IDF, which is planning to capture an additional 10 percent.

looks like the jews are not gods chosen people after all, looks like they were faking it with the help of americans money paying all the cowards to lie now look at the it the jews throw their poorest soldiers to the slaughter like the cowards they are
god do not promised this land to khazars
judaism is the biggest scam. they hi jacked the religion long ago and continue to commit the world’s biggest crimes under its mantle. it’s all a huge onion of mass-cons. layers upon layers of interconnecting lies
the jooz were chosen by $atan.
the wheels on gideons chariots aren’t turning to well.
those chariots were probably built by volvo. what you expect from a company that cheated on emissions standards.
probably built by volvo?
gaza = jewish land
khazaria = khazar land.
as long as they don’t lose putler and jolani, they don’t care.
‘rigging with mines to demo’.
bullshit. these were meant for random civilians.
kids. women. its why one went off by mistake.
this is how they designate ‘no go zones’. not with clear demarcation, but with random murder.
if we kill enough people here, they will stop coming here.
my only goal in life is to see the world rid of these saturnian blood cult khazar name stealing false semitic fucks, definitively, and with furious prejudice.
the number of dead shlomos is given as 451. but during al aqsa flood in oct. 23, hamas wiped out 320 zio kiddie killer goons and 59 secret police thugs (zio figures.)
lol
die jews, die!
dead jooz! good news!!
this guy on youtube named mahmood od said twenty idf soldiers were killed in an attack this week. he shows video evidence. i didn’t watch the video since the gore gets to me.
but i’m wondering, why does south front seem to only take the israeli government’s rendition of the situation?
south front is a pro zionist controlled opposition operation run by unit8200 and brigade 77 so the russian zionists can mark out goyim sympathisers. remember lot’s of israelis are technically russian
suspicions were raised on this some time back. getting somewhat obvious now, but . . . . it could come down to budgetary issues too ? ?
that would teach volvo for messing with hamas. fafo.
genocide sponsored by sweden volvo i see.
ak sedel doma, tak by sa mu nič nestalo. kde má hlava padnúť, tak tam ju nohy zanesú!!! svetu mier a mysleniu zdar!!!
wonderful news as the diper head thugs get sent to hell. how long before the beast itself is dispatched?
the joo has no future in palestine, but their former ghettos in ussa and urupp are now full of the mohammadan detritus from the joo wars of expansion… the fun will start when palestine is disinfected and the joo rums back to its ancient ghettos.
