Update: Fourth Soldier Commits Suicide... 3 Israeli Soldiers Killed in Gaza Strip Battles

SadaNews Translation - The Israeli army announced on Monday evening the death of 3 soldiers in battles in northern Gaza Strip.

According to the Israeli army, as translated by SadaNews, the soldiers belong to the 401 Battalion and were killed during battles in their operational areas in the northern part of the strip.

The Efrat Settlement Council, located south of Bethlehem, preempted the Israeli army's announcement by declaring the death of one of its residents who was fighting in the Gaza Strip battles.

According to the council, they and the family of the deceased soldier were informed of his death, noting that he is to be buried tomorrow.

Platforms for settlers confirmed that 3 soldiers were killed in separate incidents in the Gaza Strip, as translated by SadaNews.

The incidents include an initial event that occurred east of Gaza City, and another in Khan Younis in the southern part of the strip.

The Israeli forces have suffered numerous human losses in recent days due to the attrition operations carried out against them by Hamas.

A fourth soldier's death was announced after his body was found having committed suicide at a base where he served with the Nahal Brigade in the Golan Heights.

This marks the third soldier to commit suicide within a single week, all of whom participated in the Gaza war.
