24 Israeli soldiers died in a single day, Monday January 22. 21 were reservists. This is the heaviest Israeli loss since the start of the war triggered by Hamas attacks on October 7.
Soldiers pay tribute to their brothers in arms in Jerusalem, Tuesday January 23. More than 200 people attend the funeral of the 24 soldiers who died in the Gaza Strip on Monday January 22. The Israeli army suffers its heaviest loss in one day since the start of the ground offensive in the Palestinian territory. In a base camp near the Gaza Strip, Israeli soldiers maintain morale. According to the army spokesperson, 21 reservists died in the collapse of two buildings they were mining in the south of the Gaza Strip, after rockets were fired against a nearby tank.
Towards a ceasefire?
Benjamin Netanyahu speaks of a disaster and announces the opening of an investigation by the Israeli army. The continuation of the conflict and its human cost are increasing pressure on the Israeli government to negotiate a truce with Hamas.
