Meanwhile, a Hezbollah ambush killed and wounded a number of Israeli soldiers as soon as they tried to enter Lebanon. 

In Gaza, the Israeli army carried out several major massacres, unseen in Gaza in weeks, killing over 40 in Khan Yunis, 3′ in Gaza and more elsewhere.

According to the Palestinian Health Ministry in Gaza, 41,689 Palestinians have been killed, and 96,625 wounded in Israel’s ongoing genocide in Gaza starting on October 7, 2023.
