Israeli Army Admits Tank Was Destroyed, Three Troops Were Killed In Gaza

The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) admitted on October 25 that three of its troops were killed while fighting in the northern Gaza Strip.

The slain troops were all serving with the 460th Armored Brigade’s 196th Tank Officers Training Battalion. The brigade is the IDF’s school for tank commanders during peacetime. One of the three was a commander at the school, while the remaining two were cadets.

The troops were killed in the Jabaliya refugee camp when a powerful explosive device was detonated against the main battle tank they were in, according to the IDF. The fourth soldier in the tank was moderately wounded by the blast.

The 460th Armored Brigade’s 196th Tank Officers Training Battalion is known to operate the IDF’s advanced Merkava MK 4M tanks.

The IDF has been operating in Jabaliya and other parts of northern Gaza for more than two weeks. Most of the Palestinians who were living there were forcibly displaced to the southern part of the Strip. Israeli strikes destroyed much of the north, yet the Hamas Movement, the Palestinian Islamic Jihad and other factions continue to resist.

In recent days, the IDF lost multiple Merkava tanks and Caterpillar D9 armored bulldozers in Jabaliya as a result of attacks with explosive devices and rocket-propelled grenades.

The latest deaths brought Israel’s toll in the ground operations against Hamas and other Palestinian armed factions in Gaza and along its border to 361. More than 2,280 others have been reportedly wounded. In addition, over 500 vehicles were hit in the Strip, according to Hebrew media.

Meanwhile on the Palestinian side, the death toll from the Israeli war has exceeded 42,800, with women and children making up most of the casualties.

it has to be a game changer. all of gaza will soon be liberated from israel. 80,000 dead civilians will rise from their graves. the demolished buildings will reconstruct on their own. there will be an abundance of food, medical supplies and all things in gaza, because the cretins from hamas destroyed one tank out of thousands that were available. it is sarcasm/irony, if some muslim brains haven’t caught it.

cry from the bunker as the shlomos get ready to get whacked one more time. the fear and desperation of the noses squatting palestine is palpable. karma always collects for evil done and the chosenite bill will be terrible beyond what even a khazar nose can imagine.

all the iskhaeli scumbags have is the “pride” of being able to carpet bomb civilians. they think it somehow is a “win” because it makes their enemies “sad”.

what they fail to understand is that this has zero tactical benefit, and strategically it is a loss. consequences are:

Mowaten

-international isolation of the parasitic zionazi regime

-criminal prosecution to come, they can only stall the icc for a time

-strenghtening of the resistance determination and willingness to fight to serve justice to the murderers

-having nothing more to lose means there is no “blackmail” options left for zionazis to hang over the resistance heads

Who Pays You

defenseless women and children were killed by the american backed genocide and land grab in gaza engineered by mossad and biden. you insult the graves of the murdered children by blaming the victims for their own murder

anon

every murdered kiddie fuels the resolve and desire for revenge against the zio filth. the jewsa and its vassals are falling apart. soon there will be no goy stooges to arm and bankroll genocide. the fake state in occupied palestine will disappear in a puff of smoke.

Clyde

one has to ask what kind of scum-bag cheer-leads the jewish supremacist murderers. all your posts are easily distilled into two simple talking points. resistance to the jewish supremacists is criminal, and putin bad. lazy.

Fuck Elon Musk

moron it was not just one zionists tank, they have blow up like 500 jew tanks, moron!

Fuck Elon Musk

snowden? you more like snowflake lol 😂

the evil khazar abomination illegally squatting palestine has shown the rest of humanity the sickness that is the diabolic chosenite collection of mutts. up to now the beast slaughters with impunity due to the hold the thugs have on their goyim in the so-called west. however, now that the fiat filth dollah is fast becoming worthless who will continue to fund and feed the welfare warfare beast when the bankrupt tax cattle in $lumville finally cry halt?

south of israel in egypt direction is israeli secret intelligence service isis. and government of egypt is the maroccan jew al-sisi. if muslims eighter with help of iran.,turkey or putin manage to get rid of that snake & open 2nd front against israel from that side – israel will be done as they cannot survive let alone win two-front war. btw egypt has border directly with gaza-strip.so that’s the point axis of resistance should now focus on, in order to defeat israel.

yes, a nato member such as turkey is likely to take on the principal us asset in the region. derp.

Martillo

hamas destroys terrorists and the terrorists destroy civilians. even a khazar klown has to know how this inevitably ends. onward to palestine cured of the zionazi disease.

Gurki

yes but we need to understand that putins russia plays – lets say “dubious role” in all of this, see: http://alturl.com/vxky2

globalism is the consolidation of the power of the financial elite. opposition to that would be some form of economic democracy. was there ever any evidence that economic democracy was the prevailing ideology in post-yeltsin russia?

strange, an instructor and some cadets. why? gaza is so ‘secured’ that they act with green crews? or they simply have no more resource to use?
