Jerusalem: The toll of Israeli soldiers in the ongoing military conflict with Hamas has reached 225, with the recent death of 24-year-old Sgt First Class (res.) Shimon Yehoshua Asulin, according to The Times of Israel, citing the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) on Sunday. Asulin, a resident of Beit Shemesh from the 924th Engineering Battalion of the Harel Brigade, was killed in the southern Gaza Strip.

Simultaneously, the IDF conducted an airstrike on a Hezbollah building in the southern Lebanese village of Taybeh on Saturday, as reported by The Times of Israel. Throughout the day, artillery shells were fired into different parts of Lebanon. These actions were in response to Hezbollah launching rockets from Lebanon towards Mount Dov and the settlements of Even Menahem and Yir'on in Israel on Saturday morning. Fortunately, there were no casualties reported on the Israeli side. The IDF stated that it targeted the launch sites of Hezbollah.

Since the October 7 attack by Hamas terrorists on Israel from Gaza, Hezbollah has been operating along Lebanon's border with Israel, firing rockets and anti-tank missiles at Israeli towns and army positions, and engaging troops on a near-daily basis, according to The Times of Israel. Despite repeated warnings, Hezbollah continues its activities, prompting IDF responses by striking the group's cells and posts in southern Lebanon.

The ongoing conflict has resulted in significant casualties, with at least 27,019 people killed and 66,139 wounded in Israeli attacks on Gaza since October 7, according to the Hamas-run Palestinian Health Ministry in Gaza. The revised death toll in Israel from the October 7 Hamas attacks stands at 1,139, as reported.
