The Zaytoun is another area, located south of Gaza City, which Israel had claimed to have subdued months ago.
Israel today declared that 46 of its soldiers were injured in battles throughout the Gaza Strip. Considering that Israel only announces some of its casualties, the number is relatively high.
This is consistent with multiple announcements made by Palestinian Resistance groups throughout the Gaza Strip. Al-Qassam Brigades, the military wing of the Palestinian Resistance Movement Hamas, said that its fighters have engaged in fierce battles with invading Israeli soldiers in the Zaytoun neighborhood.
