[edit]The IDF and the Shin Bet seized an intelligence treasure of Hamas in the form of mountains of documents, files and computers. Among other things, competency tables, equipment lists, classified maps and instructions on what to do if captured were found.

Recently, an interesting report was published by the oldest defense research institute in Britain examining the IDF's warfare tactics inside Gaza in the northern part of the Strip, north of the netzarim axis.

This article is written from a biased point of view. It uses sources which have been discredited, or required retractions or corrections. This is supposed to report the facts of the situation, not propagate propaganda. There is also a complete lack of information on anything explaining the instigation of this situation (October 7th massacre). Moreover, there is a distinct lack of information discussing the proven discreditation of false information disseminated by Hamas and reported in media and by the UN. Please consider relying on sources which do not confirm the authors'/editors' inherent biases. Please take the time to report the facts instead of pushing an agenda.

The IDF's casualty number
[edit]The casualty number (given by the "yediot ahronot" newspaper) quotted by the aricle, stems from a misled interpretation of the information given by the source, as, The given casualty figure, refers to every IDF soldier that has been treated following the war, with soldiers who suffer from psycholohical damage also being included in the account. In wikipedia, casualties belonging to this category, are rarely included in the casualty count, with generally almost no emphasis given for the mental consequences of military conflicts in typical articles about military engagements. Additionally, the article refers to the IDF's number casualty throughout the entire war, in all of the fronts combined. A figure which is most likely, signifcantly higher than the number of the IDF's casualties in gaza alone. On top of that, the article does not dispute the official number of casualties published by the IDF (if it did, the article's main emphasis would be entirely different, that it would provide a clarity regarding this essential claim, as, such a claim is significant enough, in order for it to inevtiably be highlighted and extensively elaborated in addtional articles made by the news agency, which is not the case), as the casualty figures given by the article, rely on a broader definition of the term "casualty", hence, not cotradicting the IDF's claims. Therefore, the misled, or intentional misinterpretation of the article's main conclusion, is an unobjective attempt to inflate the IDF's casualty number. This should be removed. טוראי פייל (talk) 20:22, 14 August 2024 (UTC)
Not done: it's not clear what changes you want to be made. Please mention the specific changes in a "change X to Y" format and provide a reliable source if appropriate. Note that non-extended confirmed accounts like yours can only submit straightforward edit requests but cannot argue a point of view. — kashmīrī TALK 21:41, 14 August 2024 (UTC)
