The IDF announced the deaths of two additional soldiers killed while fighting in Gaza, with one being the first casualty since the end of the ceasefire.
They were named as:
- Sergeant Aschalwu Sama, 20, a soldier in the Nachal Brigade, who succumbed to his wounds last night after being wounded in battle on Nov. 14th in northern Gaza.
- Major General (Res.) Or Brandes, 25, a soldier in the 82nd Battalion, 7th Brigade (‘Golan Assault Formation’), killed overnight during battle in the center of the Gaza Strip.
Brandes’s death marks the first time an IDF soldier� was killed while operating in “the center” of Gaza.
398 IDF troops have now been killed since and including October 7th.

Yet another title correction – Or Brandes is being reported elsewhere as a Sergeant First Class, not a Major General. Big difference…

At least during the ceasefire there were no casualties. Fighting in such close quarters in a viper’s nest is a nightmare. Just bomb from above and protect our soldiers!
How’d it go from two digit numbers last week to 398 now?
