Three Israeli soldiers were killed and one critically injured in a tank explosion in northern Gaza on Monday evening. The victims were identified as Staff Sergeant Soham Menachem, Sergeant Solmo Yakir Shrem, and Sergeant Yuli Faktor. While initial reports blamed a Hamas grenade attack, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) later clarified that the blast likely resulted from a malfunctioning tank shell. In a separate incident, an Israeli soldier who had participated in the Gaza offensive died by suicide in the Golan Heights. Military authorities have not released further details.
