Between June and July 2025, the Israeli military reported multiple casualties among its soldiers in ongoing combat operations in the Gaza Strip. On June 24, an ambush in Khan Yunis resulted in the deaths of at least four Israeli soldiers and injuries to 17 others, some in critical condition. Subsequent engagements in southern Gaza on June 25 led to the deaths of one officer and six soldiers. On June 29 and early July, additional soldiers were killed in northern Gaza, including a sergeant from the 82nd Armored Battalion and a soldier from the Combat Engineering Battalion 601. On July 7-8, the Israeli army announced the deaths of five soldiers and injuries to 14 others during fighting in Beit Hanoun, northern Gaza, with some wounded severely. Later in July, further casualties were reported in both northern and southern Gaza, including three soldiers killed and an officer seriously wounded in northern Gaza on July 14, and the death of a soldier along with injuries to others in southern Gaza on July 21. The most recent reports from late July confirm the deaths of two soldiers, including one officer, in an explosion in southern Gaza. These incidents reflect ongoing hostilities and significant Israeli military losses in the Gaza Strip during this period.
