Israel says eight soldiers killed in clashes with Hezbollah in Lebanon – SUCH TV

At least eight Israeli soldiers have been killed in the regime’s ground aggression in Lebanon, Israeli media says, a day after the regime launched a cross-border ground incursion into southern parts of the Arab country.

Since the onset of Israel’s ground aggression into Lebanon on Tuesday, at least 14 Israeli soldiers have been killed during clashes with Hezbollah fighters with many reported injuries among the invaders, Sky News Arabia, citing unnamed Israeli sources.

Furthermore, Israeli Army Radio said that a commando unit faced Hezbollah fighters in a building in a southern Lebanese village, prompting medical rescue teams to respond for the regime’s injured soldiers.

A statement by the Israeli army said on Wednesday that an Israeli soldier had so far been killed “during combat in Lebanon.”

In a follow-up statement, however, the Israeli army admitted that the death toll among its forces had risen to eight.

The occupying regime has for long had a policy of not disclosing the true number of soldiers killed in combat and providing significantly lower death toll figures.

Separately on Wednesday, Hezbollah said in a statement that while “an Israeli enemy force was trying to encircle the town of Yaroun from the direction of the forest,” Hezbollah fighters managed to either kill or wound all members of the invaders through detonating “a special explosive device.”

There has been a major escalation in Israel’s barbarism in Lebanon that saw the regime assassinating Hezbollah Secretary-General Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah in an airstrike on southern Beirut on September 27.

The death toll from Israeli aerial assaults across Lebanon since early October 2023 has passed the 1,700 mark with nearly 8,770 injured, according to Lebanese government data. In response, Hezbollah has fired barrages of rockets and drones towards Israeli targets.
