An Israeli solider has been killed with an anti-tank missile in Gaza after a failed attempt to free hostages taken by Hamas.
It comes as the Israel Defence Forces (IDF) launched the "heaviest 24 hours" of bombing since the conflict began.
Around 400 Palestinians have been killed during strikes during the offensive, according to local media.
This morning, the Israeli Prime Minister hosted a meeting with his top generals and his war cabinet to assess the mounting conflict.
Clashes across Israel's border with Lebanon have escalated while Hamas's chief met with Iran's foreign minister - sparking fears the war could spread across the Middle East.
During a raid as part of efforts to rescue more than 200 hostages abducted in the October 7 Hamas attack, Israel's Rear Admiral Hagari confirmed that one soldier was killed and three others injured.
Hamas said it had fought with Israeli forces near Khan Younis in southern Gaza, which destroyed a tank and two bulldozers.
The military said: "An IDF (Israel Defense Forces) soldier was killed, one was moderately injured, and two were lightly injured as a result of an anti-tank missile launched toward an IDF tank and an engineering vehicle."
