Iran Press/ West Asia: According to the latest report on the field in Gaza, Israel has faced stiff resistance from Hamas since it began its ground offensive in late October, and the military says 172 soldiers have been killed during that time.
Daniel Hagari, Israel's military spokesman, says Israel is withdrawing some forces from Gaza as part of its “smart management” of the war. Still, it is not immediately clear if it represented a normal troop rotation or a new phase in the fighting.
Meanwhile, the Government Media Office in Gaza says it recorded 1,825 Israeli “massacres” in the strip in the past 85 days. Israeli attacks resulted in 28,822 people killed or missing, including 9,100 children.
Hamas’s military wing, the Qassam Brigades, has said it has fired at least 20 rockets towards Israel. This comes as Israel says it’s going to prolong its war on Gaza.
On the first day of 2024, the Israeli attacks in Gaza continue. The Palestinian Red Crescent Society says that several people have been killed and injured during Israeli shelling in the Beach Street area of Khan Younis, south Gaza.
At least 68 Palestinians were killed in new Israeli air strikes in Gaza on Sunday.
Israeli warplanes have also targeted civilians in the eastern Gaza district of Zeitoun, Wafa reported adding that Israeli attacks have also affected civilians in the Maghazi and Nuseirat refugee camps in Gaza.
Israeli forces have continued to raid areas in the occupied West Bank including el-Bireh city in the south of Qalqilya; Biet Iba west of Nablus; Beit Ummar north of Hebron and Barta’a in Jenin.
