The Israeli army, Saturday, acknowledged 38 of its soldiers were injured in the last 24 hours across southern Lebanon, Gaza Strip, and the West Bank.

This update comes as the military faces accusations of concealing the actual scale of its losses during a genocidal campaign against Gaza, which has escalated alongside rising assaults in the West Bank and recently extended to various areas of Lebanon, including the capital Beirut.

According to the latest data published on the military’s official website, the number of injured soldiers since Oct. 7, 2023 – the date marking the start of the genocide in Gaza – has reached 4,567, with 38 injuries reported in the past 24 hours.

The data did not provide detailed figures for injuries among soldiers on each front.

Among the injured, 695 soldiers are reported to be in “serious” condition, while 1,147 are classified as “moderate,” and the remaining cases are considered “mild,” it said.

Despite reports of two soldiers killed and 24 injured, including two critically, following drone attacks from Iraq in northern Israel on Friday, the military’s official website has not updated the total number of soldier fatalities, which remains at 726.

Since Sept. 23, Israel has launched massive airstrikes against what it calls Hezbollah targets across Lebanon, killing more than 1,180 people and injuring over 3,318 others, according to the Lebanese Health Ministry.

Hezbollah has confirmed in multiple statements over recent hours and days that it has successfully repelled attempts by Israeli forces to penetrate Lebanese territory, resulting in a significant number of casualties among Israeli troops.

Hezbollah and Israel have been engaged in cross-border warfare since the start of Israel’s war on Gaza, which has killed over 41,800 people, most of them women and children, following an attack by the Palestinian group Hamas last October.

Due to Israeli attacks, at least 2,036 people have since been killed, over 9,500 injured, and 1.2 million others displaced, according to Lebanese authorities.

The international community has warned that Israeli attacks in Lebanon could escalate the Gaza conflict into a wider regional war.

Along with 814 mosques flattened, another 148 damaged, 3 churches were also destroyed, and 19 of 60 cemeteries deliberately targeted, stated the Ministry of Religious Affairs in Gaza

The Ministry of Religious Affairs in Gaza announced, Saturday, Israel destroyed 79% of mosques in the Gaza Strip during its genocidal war against Palestinians.

The Israeli army has flattened 814 of Gaza’s 1,245 mosques and severely damaged another 148 during its intensified bombardment, the ministry revealed.

Along with the mosques, three churches were also destroyed, and 19 of the 60 cemeteries were deliberately targeted, the statement said according to Anadolu.

The estimated financial cost of the damage to the ministry’s properties is $350 million, it added.

The ministry also accused the Israeli army of desecrating graves, exhuming bodies, and committing brutal acts of violence against those who died, such as stealing their remains and mutilating them.

In addition to the destruction of places of worship, the ministry noted that 11 administrative and educational facilities under its authority were destroyed, accounting for 79% of such structures in Gaza.

The ministry added that Israeli forces killed 238 of its employees and detained 19 others during ground offensives in the territory.

The ministry condemned the attacks on Gaza’s religious sites and urged the international community, including world governments and Islamic organizations, to intervene immediately to halt the “ongoing war of extermination.”

Israel has continued its brutal offensive on the Gaza Strip following an attack by the Palestinian group Hamas last Oct. 7, despite a UN Security Council resolution calling for an immediate cease-fire.

More than 41,800 people have since been killed, mostly women and children, and over 96,800 others injured, according to local health authorities.

The Israeli onslaught has displaced almost the entire population of the territory amid an ongoing blockade that has led to severe shortages of food, clean water, and medicine.

Israel faces a genocide case at the International Court of Justice for its actions in Gaza.
