JERUSALEM, July 9 (Xinhua) — Five Israeli soldiers were killed and 14 others were wounded in an explosion in the northern Gaza Strip, the Israeli military said Tuesday.

Five soldiers from the Netzah Yehuda Battalion of the Kfir Brigade were killed when an explosive device detonated in Beit Hanoun in northern Gaza, the military said in a statement.

During the evacuation, the rescuers came under fire from an ambush set by Palestinian militants, after which the wounded were evacuated to the hospital.

At least 6,964 Palestinians have been killed since Israel resumed its military offensive on Gaza on March 18, 2025, bringing the total death toll since October 2023 to 57,523, according to Gaza health authorities. –0–
