The death toll among Israeli troops since the start of the Gaza ground incursion on Oct. 27, 2023, stands at 396, and at 828 on all fronts since the Hamas-led massacre on Oct. 7, 2023.
Additionally, Chief Inspector Arnon Zamora, a member of the Israel Border Police’s Yamam National Counter-Terrorism Unit, was fatally wounded during a hostage-rescue mission in Gaza in June, and civilian defense contractor Liron Yitzhak was mortally wounded there in May.
