It would be interesting to know how many tanks have actually been destroyed (ignoring the obvious terrorist propaganda).

If destroyed means penetrated and thus burned out, as apposed to a mobility kill, which has already been repaired, I'd say between zero and 3, and I'd be leaning to the zero.
The only known kill was a nammer which took maybe an rpg in through the rear door, resulting in 11 KIA.
Certainly the Palestinians still have mobile phones, so would have got a photo by now, if a Merkava was destroyed.

Many demonstrations taking place in France against antisemitism today (sorry it's in French but the pictures will convey the message )

Only Melanchon's far-left party isn't there, but what would you expect?
Meanwhile, greetings from Bordeaux

From the small amount of weapons the IDF have shown captured, it suggests HAMAS didnt really prepare for a land attack on them, most of the money seems to have been spent on tunnels/graves, and unguided rockets, which Israel absorbed by Iron Dome etc. This suggests the egyptians did fairly well in spotting actual firearms being smuggled.
Next phase really depends on how much time Israel thinks it has. It would be logical to meet up on the beach, simply for the morale boost/hit to hamas.

If tanks were "useless", neither the Russians nor the Ukrainians would be doing their best to get as many into the fight as possible, nor would the IDF, a very results oriented organization, use them. People who make these blanket statements usually take one screwed up internet report, misinterpret it, and apply the wrong lesson for a very specific circumstance to general conditions.

On that note, I present to you an ex-Labour MP, probably one of the worst people in Britain:

Let's not forget the intensive bombing campaign that preceded the actual invasion.
It likely participated in significantly thinning Hamas ranks and stockpiles.

It's what you get when lessons on the Holocaust are skipped by teachers necause they don't want to get beaten up by people who deny the truth and who get validated for it by politicians and schoolboards looking to "shield" them from "sensitivities". Like historical facts are subjective like they've also done to maths.

@IDF_TANKER and all,
Since you mentioned about the demonstration/protest against antisemitism in France, here’s the BBC article summing things up and for once relatively well:
www.bbc.com
The last bits and paragraphs are IMO the most interesting.
Basically that the far-left in France so Melenchon and his “France Unbowed” party have long given up on the working class French citizens to focus, on a purely electoral shenanigan to appeal to the suburbs in French major cities and a certain part of the electorate. No need to point finger you get it.
Whatever one think of Marine Le Pen, daughter of the infamous Jean-Marie and his dubious, tasteless cracks against Jews fourty years ago, his daughter and her party want to distance themselves from that.
I find pretty interesting someone like Serge Klarsfeld who spent his life chasing, prosecuting Nazis or French collaborators past the War while not endorsing the National Rally party approved of their presence at this protest, for the sake of unity in this country and beyond - on a continent threatened by a certain antisemitism which is not that of the brown shirts in the streets of Germany in 1936.

French march against antisemitism shakes up far right and far left
Far-right leader Marine Le Pen takes part, alongside major parties but the far left refuses.
