Defense Minister Yoav Gallant said on Wednesday that 60% of Hamas terrorists in the Gaza Strip were killed or wounded as a result of the Israeli operation in the Gaza Strip.

In his speech to the Knesset, he also said that Israel had destroyed the majority of the 24 battalions that Hamas’ military wing had at the start of the war.

“IDF has killed 14,000 terrorists”

“The actions of the Israeli forces, which have so far led to the elimination of over 14,000 terrorists and the collapse of Hamas’ military structures, actually prove what I am saying: everything will be done in accordance with the law and operational requirements.”
