Israel has been operating in Gaza since the Hamas militant group’s 7 October 2023 attack on Israel.

More than 860 Israeli soldiers have been killed since the war began, including more than 400 during the fighting in Gaza.

At least two other British-Israeli soldiers have been killed in the conflict so far.

Binyamin Yehoshua Needham
, 19, was killed in December 2023. He had only just finished his professional training.

Nathanel Young,
20, from London, was killed in the 7 October attacks.

The Israeli offensive has devastated Gaza and killed more than 56,000 people, according to Gaza’s Health Ministry, a branch of the Hamas government.
