August has become the bloodiest month for the Israeli army, with 15 soldiers lost in the ongoing conflict in the Gaza Strip. Families of prisoners held in Gaza are calling for a prisoner exchange deal as tensions rise.

The Israeli occupation army reported a significant toll in soldier fatalities during August, marking it as the bloodiest month in the current conflict. With 15 soldiers killed, the total number of Israeli soldiers lost since the onset of hostilities on October 7 has now reached 704. This alarming statistic reflects the ongoing intensity of military operations in the Gaza Strip, particularly for the 16th Brigade, which suffered heavy losses in the Netzarim axis.

In a poignant display of solidarity, families of Israeli prisoners held in Gaza organized a march from Tel Aviv, urging the government to prioritize a prisoner exchange deal. The emotional appeal was underscored by Shira Albag, whose daughter is among those captured, emphasizing that history will judge Israel not by its military actions but by its commitment to returning its soldiers home. Current estimates suggest that 107 Israelis remain in captivity in Gaza, with over 50 believed to be alive.
