The soldiers were named as:
- Sergeant Shneur Zalman Cohen (20) from the village of Yitzhar near Shechem. Cohen, a member of a well-known Chabad family from Samaria, is survived by his parents Zeev and Dina and his eight siblings. He was a member of the charedi Tomer battalion of the Givati brigade.Cohen is the 25th resident of the Samaria Regional Council to fall in the war. Samaria Regional Council head Yossi Dagan eulogized him: “Shneur was a person with inner grace which shone outward. He learned Torah, and was also a sharp fighter. Before he enlisted, he volunteered in regional defense. He was raised by a family of true pioneers, Dina and Ze’ev Cohen, who moved – at the height of the Oslo war – the Second Intifada – to live in Sa-Nur and strengthen the towns of northern Samaria. They are dedicated to all of the town’s needs. Since October 7, his father has been serving in the reserves, in the regional defense of Samaria.”
“The Samaria Regional Council will support the family with everything it needs. The entire Samaria family is mourning and embraces the Cohen family.” - Staff Sergeant Yair Hanania (22) from the Lower Galilee village of Mitzpeh Netofah. Hanania is the youngest of six children.
- Staff Sergeant Itai Parizat, aged 20, from Petah Tikva.
Yair and Itai, members of the Shaked battalion of the Givati brigade, fell in a booby-trapped building in Northern Gaza. During the previous week, 12 soldiers fell in similar circumstances, sparking criticism of the IDF which has allowed soldiers to enter buildings before they have been bombed by the IAF or by artillery to verify that they are not booby-trapped.
May their blood be avenged.
Every Yid with the most flickering Yiddisha neshoma has to be heartbroken, reading each day, such horrendous news of these tragic losses- in the IDF – nebich, young beautiful Yiddish souls, just barely beginning to live, their families, devastated – Hashem surely has HIS PLAN, but what is the ‘end game’ as far as the Israeli government is concerned? Seems they are at a loss for giving themselves an eitzah. Maybe to acknowledge Ein Od Milvado, and HK’BH as their salvation. Surely, publicly doing this would cause them no harm! Meanwhile, the ‘numbers; tragically, keep adding upwards. Hashem Yeracheim.
To Been here and there : Indeed , absolutely impossible situation. However ,I am told regarding Gaza that Israel could , should get more aggressive : taking over Gaza . Also , let s not forget the role : Trump could , should play .
In response to much of the nonsense being posted here:
– IDF generals very much care about soldiers’s lives – I’ve met and spoken to them at the funerals of too many of my sons’ friends and my friends’ sons. Stop lying.
– often, the reason a building is not bombed is that it is being used or planned to be used as a temporary base for the soldiers – it provides cover when they’re fighting terrorists. Unfortunately, some of the buildings are boobytrapped – and while the IDF has methods of finding and neutralizing such boobytraps, the methods are not foolproof – resulting in incidents like this.
There are so many casualties because they are being pressured to finish faster due to hostages and international pressure. If they had time to take care and do it right there would be less casualties
Update from today: 10 reservist soldiers were sentenced to military prison after refusing to enter Gaza without critical drone support. ️

Do you think before writing such comments?
The idiotic secular israeli generals don’t care about religious soldiers dying. They would love to recruit chareidi yeshiva boys to become cannon fatar. They send in frum soldiers to buildings loaded with explosives rather than just bomb the entire building from a distance by tank or plane. This is done to avoid killing Gaza civilians. Saving them is more important than the lives of soldiers. Sick and getting sicker.
It seems Israeli generals have zero regard for casualties even on their own soldiers as the soldiers are killed from hidden explosives not even in combat
