IDF Staff Sergeant Killed in Gaza; Multiple Soldiers Wounded in Blast

The Israel Defense Forces announced on Tuesday the death of 20-year-old Staff Sergeant Naveh Leshem in combat in southern Gaza on Monday.
Leshem's death happened during escalating ground combat, as Israeli troops encounter strong opposition from Hamas fighters in Gaza.
An improvised explosive device detonated near Leshem’s unit’s Namer armored personnel carrier, killing him and seriously wounding an officer and three soldiers.
His death brings Israeli military casualties since the war’s start to 869, with 427 casualties since the Gaza ground incursion began on October 27, 2023.
Military officials said progress continues but risks remain high, as the nation mourns its young soldiers amid ongoing heavy fighting.
