The Israeli army on Wednesday said seven of its soldiers were killed in combat in Gaza, where the war with Palestinian militant group Hamas continued.
The army's website listed the names of five soldiers and a platoon commander from the same battalion who "fell during combat in the southern Gaza Strip".
It added that a seventh soldier was also killed, but his family had not given permission for him to be named.
More than 430 Israeli soldiers have died in the war, triggered by Hamas' October 7, 2023 attack on Israel.
After Israel agreed to a ceasefire with Iran on Tuesday, Israel's military chief Eyal Zamir said focus would now shift back to Gaza.
