Army Radio reporter Doron Kadosh says that the IDF has visually confirmed the deaths of around 15,000 Hamas terrorists, and that there are likely thousands more buried under the rubble or blown apart in the fighting.
This would mean that even taking the Palestinian Health Ministry's number of 40,000 dead at face value means that the IDF has achieved a 1:1 ratio of civilians killed per terrorist, a number not yet achieved in conditions of urban warfare.
