TEHRAN – Palestinian resistance forces killed three more Israeli professional soldiers in the besieged Gaza Strip on Monday afternoon.
At least three people were injured in the same incident in Jabaria, northern Gaza, when the missile struck the tank, according to Israeli government media.
The IOF has identified the deaths as Sergeant Schham Menachem, Sergeant Schlomo Yakir Schlem and Sergeant Yuliy Faktor.
All three served in the 52nd Battalion of the 401st Armored Brigade of the IOF.
The attack occurred while the units were engaged in what was described as a mission in the town of North Gaza, “to defeat the local Hamas battalion and destroy infrastructure on both the ground and below.”
Over the past week, at least 10 IOF soldiers from elite forces have been killed amid the US-backed war of genocide in Gaza.
This brings the total number of IOF soldiers killed by Palestinian resistance forces since the reopening of genocide in March to at least 43.
Meanwhile, Palestinian resistance fighters have launched more attacks on various aspects of the entire Gaza Strip, targeting the IOF and causing casualties.
The Al-QUDS Brigade, an armed wing of Palestinian Islamic jihad, has released footage of the target strike to the IOF command and control centre using guided missiles in Gaza’s Shujaiya district.
The Al-QUDS Brigade also reported that it had destroyed the IOF military vehicles by detonating a pre-planted barrel bomb near the Islamic University in the Maan region, southeast of Khan Yunis.
Reports show that helicopters from the occupation were deployed to evacuate wounded and dead soldiers.
The Palestinian resistance also announced that “many rockets had fired the be’eri village of Gaza envelopes in response to the crimes of Zionist enemies against the Palestinians.”
Meanwhile, the Al-Qassam brigade reported that it would use a rocket-propelled g-fire from the Yasin-105 north of Khan Younis to target the namer armored personnel iof armored personnel.
Palestinian resistance continues to escalate operations against the IOF, causing losses of both human and material. New reports suggest that new efforts may be underway to capture Israeli soldiers.
The Hebrew newspaper Maarib reported that three Israeli soldiers killed in northern Gaza were inside Merkaba’s four mark tanks during a clash in Jabaria.
Paper military correspondent Avi Ashkenazi confirmed that death occurred in what is considered “the world’s best and strongest tank in terms of protection.”
Ashkenazi added that until this morning the IOF had not decided whether the tank had been attacked by a tank missile or a crash into an explosive device placed underneath it.
Maarib explained the growth of growth among IOF officers who are reluctant to present facts to political leaders.
It added that the occupying forces are “buried in the mud of Gaza” and that their leadership is suffering from the chaos of wars that are no longer controlled.
Hamas said, “Our resistance fighters are shocking their enemies every day with innovative field tactics, stripping them of their initiatives and throwing their calculations into confusion.
The Palestinian resistance movement states, “The longer the war continues, the deeper the occupying forces will sink into Gaza’s quicksand and be exposed to precise strikes of resistance.
