Israel army says 200 soldiers killed in Gaza ground operation

Since the Israeli military started conducting combat operations in the Gaza Strip in late October, 200 soldiers have died there, the military said on Monday. The area is administered by Hamas.

“The number of fallen soldiers in Gaza since October 27 is 200,” an army spokesperson told AFP.

The Israeli military said Tuesday that 21 soldiers were killed in the central Gaza Strip in one of the deadliest attacks of the more than three-month-old war against the Palestinian militant group Hamas.

Israel has given Hamas a proposal through Qatari and Egyptian mediators that includes up to two months of a pause in fighting as part of a multiphase deal, Axios reported on Monday.


The United States and Britain launched new strikes on Yemen’s Houthis Monday, saying their second round of joint military action against the Iran-backed rebels was in response to continued attacks on Red Sea shipping.
