Israel reports three more soldiers killed in northern Gaza

The latest casualties reported by Israeli forces include a 23-year-old deputy company commander in the Givati Brigade and two sergeants, aged 20 and 21, in the same brigade.

All were killed in fighting in the northern part of the Gaza Strip, Israel’s military said. There were no reports of injuries in the casualty update.

According to a UN report on the situation in Gaza, 24 Israeli soldiers were reported killed in the Palestinian territory between December 22 and 26.

A total of 164 Israeli soldiers have now been killed and 874 injured since the start of Israel’s invasion of Gaza two months ago, the UN said.

It was not known if the latest three deaths were part of the death toll reported by the UN.
