IDF death toll

Okay, so on January 11 it was announced that four IDF soldiers died in a new incident. There were no article updates regarding casualties on January 11. On January 12, the page was edited increasing IDF death toll by one. And today, on January 13, we got the most recent update with five IDF soldiers killed in today's incident, but January 11 deaths are still unaccounted for.
