IDF: 1,800 Wounded Soldiers Evacuated Since War Began

By    |   Thursday, 31 October 2024 10:13 AM EDT

The IDF has evacuated approximately 1,800 soldiers since the war began, according to statistics released by the military on Tuesday.

The evacuation operations were carried out by "the IDF Medical Corps, the Israeli Air Force, and Unit 669, the IAF rescue unit," The Jerusalem Post reported.

The newly released statistics include evacuated soldiers from both the operations against the Hamas terror group in Gaza and the recently opened front in the north aimed at pushing Hezbollah out of southern Lebanon.

About 1,600 of these injured soldiers were evacuated during "Iron Swords War" operations in Gaza, which has now gone on for more than a year.

The military reported that 200 were evacuated from the north, however, revealing a notably higher rate of evacuated injured soldiers in Israel's operations against Hezbollah, which started just a month ago.

Overall, 12,000 Israelis have been wounded since the war began last Oct. 7, 2023, shortly after the Hamas invasion and unprecedented massive terror attack in southern Israel.

Earlier this month, on the anniversary of last year's Oct. 7 attack, Israeli officials announced that 728 soldiers and security officials had been killed since the war began, with another 4,576 wounded.

As of Oct. 7 of this year, the IDF reported that it has eliminated approximately 17,000 fighters that belong to Hamas and other terror organizations in Gaza since the war began.

In its operations in Lebanon, Israel has reported eliminating about 800 terrorists.
