IDF reports 1,593 wounded since October 7, but data is much higher - reports

The Israeli army has launched a website publishing its military casualties.

The website claims 430 soldiers have been killed since 7 October - 97 of whom have been killed since the launch of the ground operation on October 7.

At least 1,593 wounded according to the website. However, the Israeli daily Haaretz, which forced the government to release the data - which it had refused - found major discrepancies in the data.

Haaretz conducted an examination of the data released by the hospitals where wounded soldiers have been and are treated and found a “unexplained gap between the data reported by the military and that from the hospitals.”

The hospitals' data shows that the number of wounded soldiers to be twice as high as the army's numbers and the paper reported that is likely a undercount.
