Intense Combat in Gaza: Confirmed Death of 900 Soldiers, Over 6,200 Injured Among Ranks of the Israeli Military
In the ongoing conflict between Israel and the Gaza Strip, the reported death toll among Israeli soldiers and officers has reached a tragic milestone. As of August 31st, 2025, 1,090 Israeli soldiers have lost their lives, with 900 of these deaths occurring in the Gaza Strip.
The highest number of casualties was reported in June and July of this year, with 21 and 18 soldiers killed respectively. These figures mark the highest death toll since October and November of 2024, when most of the fatalities took place during fighting in southern Lebanon amid clashes between Israel and Hezbollah.
The Israeli army has reported a total of 6,213 soldiers injured since the start of the conflict in Gaza. Of these injured soldiers, 925 have serious injuries, 1,540 have moderate injuries, and 3,748 have light injuries. It is important to note that there is no information available about an Israeli commander killed during the fighting in the Gaza Strip on July 11, 2025.
The Israeli army has approved a plan to occupy Gaza, starting with Gaza City. This decision comes after about 23 months of continuous fighting in the region. The majority of the fatalities in July were reported to have occurred during operational incidents due to "the apparent state of extreme exhaustion after nearly two years of continuous war."
The "Al-Aqsa Flood" operation by Hamas, which took place in October and November of 2023, resulted in the deaths of 311 soldiers. This operation was one of the deadliest incidents for the Israeli military during the conflict.
