As the column moved near the Namer battleship, an explosion occurred, causing the death of the military.
An explosion in the city of Rafah in the Gaza Strip killed eight Israeli soldiers. This was reported by the Times of Israel in connection with the IDF press service on Saturday, June 15.
According to preliminary data, all military personnel were in the Namer infantry fighting vehicle, which was traveling this morning as part of a convoy of armored vehicles. While approaching the combat vehicle, an explosion was heard which caused people to die.
The cause of the explosion is yet to be determined. It is believed that an explosive device planted by the Palestinians may have exploded.
According to the IDF, the number of military personnel during the operation in Gaza increased to 307 people. Today’s losses were the biggest in a day since January of this year.
The deadliest incident in Gaza occurred in January, when 21 soldiers were killed in an explosion following a Hamas RPG attack that destroyed two buildings.
Let’s remember that two days ago Israel launched an operation in the area of Al-Alam Square on the beach in the western part of the Palestinian city of Rafah.
