TLDR:
Since October 7th 2023, 5942 families in Israel have been listed as “bereaved”, compared to 844 military deaths in official statistics.
Even if this were to include the claimed death toll of 1200 on Oct 7th 2023 (which is way higher than the real number), this is still multiple times higher than Israel’s govt will ever admit.
Over 15000 soldiers have also been admitted into rehabilitation for physical and mental injuries suffered since October 2023.
I saw one post claiming 8000 citing US intelligence. Obviously, that’s impossible to verify. However, Blinken and others have also claimed that Hamas has recruited enough Gazans to replace its losses since October.
The Hamas military wing (Al Qassam Brigades) was anywhere between 15000-40000+ before the genocide war, for reference.
In Lebanon, IDF claimed 2700 killed. Hezbollah has not published official claims for their losses.
Hamas 2 which now has a massive fucking stockpile of unexploded bombs to manufacture anti tank weapons lmao
That’s a 1,33 ratio. Absolutely jaw-dropping L.
They’ve basically dropped a Hiroshima bomb on fish in a barrel and only manage to kill slightly more soldiers than they’ve lost. No wounder they have to count unborn babies as Hamas, only way to make that k/d not a fucking joke.
Wile E. Coyote ass army.
Yup. I did some napkin math a while ago when the 8000 figure dropped and it’s basically the worst civilian to fighter ratio ever recorded.
EDIT: oh you meant Resistance-to-IOF ratio, yeah compared to shit like the Iraq invasion this is a devastating L for a technologically dominant army with total air superiority.
