The Israel Defense Forces has published the names of 798 soldiers, officers and reservists — several dozen of whom are local security officers — killed during the ongoing war with Palestinian terrorists since October 7, more than 304 of them on the border with the Gaza Strip during the terror onslaught, and at least 376 during a ground offensive in the Hamas-run territory and amid operations on the border, reported from  The Times of Israel.

Meanwhile, the Israel Police listed 58 officers who were killed confronting the terrorists on the Gaza border, an officer killed during a hostage rescue operation in the Strip, six officers killed in terror attacks in Israel and the West Bank, and three other officers killed during clashes with terror operatives in West Bank raids.

Approximately 1,200 people were killed as Hamas terrorists in Gaza launched a war on Israel on the morning of October 7, infiltrating towns, rampaging through military positions, shooting travelers dead on roads and in their homes and firing thousands of rockets at a wide swath of the country in a shocking assault.

Terrorists also dragged 251 civilians and soldiers into Gaza.

Twenty-eight soldiers and a local security officer have also been killed in attacks claimed by Lebanon’s Hezbollah and allied terror groups on northern Israel since the fighting started. 44 soldiers were killed during ground operations in Lebanon.

Ten soldiers were killed in terror attacks in the West Bank and Israel. Three soldiers were killed during a counter-terrorism operation in the West Bank.

Two soldiers were killed in a drone attack from Iraq.

The military’s list also includes a soldier killed by friendly fire in the West Bank, a soldier killed due to malfunctioning ammunition on the Lebanon border, two soldiers killed in a tank accident in northern Israel, and a number of other deadly incidents amid the war but not directly related to the fighting.
