Seven Israeli soldiers were killed Tuesday in the southern Gaza city of Khan Younis when their armored vehicle was struck by an explosive, an Israeli military official said Wednesday.
The announcement comes a day after witnesses and hospitals in Gaza said Israeli forces and drones opened fire toward hundreds of Palestinians waiting for aid in separate incidents in southern and central Gaza early Tuesday, killing at least 44.
Meanwhile, people in Iran began returning to their lives as a ceasefire with Israel, negotiated by President Donald Trump, appeared to be holding. State media described heavy traffic around the Caspian Sea area and other rural areas outside of the capital, Tehran, as people began returning to the city.
The Iran-Israel conflict lasted 12 days with Israel targeting Iranian nuclear and military sites, saying it could not allow Tehran to develop atomic weapons. On Sunday, the U.S. intervened by dropping bunker-buster bombs on Iranian nuclear sites. Iran has long maintained that its nuclear program is peaceful.
Here is the latest:
7 Israeli soldiers killed in Gaza
Israel’s military said Wednesday that seven soldiers had been killed the day before inside Gaza.
A military official, speaking on the condition of anonymity in line with military regulations, said that the seven were killed around 5pm when an explosive struck their armored vehicle in the southern Gaza city of Khan Younis.
The military said another soldier was badly wounded Tuesday from RPG fire.
The incident was an unusually deadly one for Israel’s troops operating inside Gaza.
The military says over 860 soldiers have been killed since the war began with the Oct. 7, 2023 Hamas attack — including more than 400 during fighting inside Gaza.

Hamas claims attack on Israeli soldiers
Al-Qassam Brigades, Hamas’ military wing, said on its Telegram channel Tuesday it had ambushed Israeli soldiers taking cover inside a residential building in the southern Gaza Strip.
Some of the soldiers were killed and other injured after they were targeted by a Yassin 105 missile and another missile south of Khan Younis, Hamas said.
Al-Qassam fighters then targeted the building with machine guns.
It was not immediately clear whether the incident was related to the Israeli military’s announcement that seven of its soldiers were killed Tuesday in Gaza.
Well, that’s seven less to worry about!👍😢
LOL..
The ceasefire is holding.. the fire has ceased have no doubt…
just like the one in the Ukraine.. ‘but..but the jewes are still bombing the mullahs’ I hear you say.. you can go and check it , some people are actually reporting it…
in fact, if you peek carefully..just a little squint, you can see the same MO in both fake wars and that’s because they have the same scriptwriter and directors…peace talks, ceasefires, red team blue…pick your hero, get set get ready…va va boom… over and over..
All wars are bankers wars..
.of course the phrase is misinterpreted, taken on face value, one has to unfurl the occultism and rearrange the cypher…
and find safe harbour ..
Rarotflmfao Keep up the good work killing Yids.
Well, thousands and thousands of indigenous Palestinians havc been murdered by these same occupiers/imposters. Where is the collateral damage? Hopefully the israehell soldiers will abandon their post and then nutyahoo’s son, wife along with bvir, stromich and the all the likud party can fill in the empties.
