JERUSALEM, Nov. 11 (Xinhua) -- An Israeli military major was killed Monday in the northern Gaza Strip, the Israeli army said in a statement.
Itamar Levin Fridman, a 34-year-old squad commander, "fell during combat," the army reported, adding he was struck and killed by an anti-tank missile during an Israeli raid on the northern Gaza city of Jabalia.
The Israeli army launched a major operation in early October, claiming there was a "Hamas resurgence" there.
His death brings the total number of Israeli soldiers killed since the Gaza war began on Oct. 7, 2023, to 783, according to official Israeli figures. Enditem
