White blood cells that engulf and destroy pathogens are called monocytes (which circulate in the blood and reside in the bodies tissues) and neutrophil or neutrocytes (which circulate in the bloodstream as well but are particularly responsive to bacterial and fungal infections and inflammations).

Neutrophils and macrophages are the white blood cells primarily responsible for phagocytosis. They engulf and digest pathogens, debris, and other foreign particles to help protect the body from infection and maintain homeostasis.
PhagocytosisPhagocytes make up three-quarters of the body's white blood cells. They destroy pathogens by engulfing them.It's called phagocytosis. Macrophages mainly phagocytose the pathogens.
White blood cells
Phagocytic granulocytes are a type of white blood cell that can engulf and digest foreign particles, such as bacteria and dead cells. They include neutrophils, eosinophils, and basophils, and play a key role in the body's immune response to infection and inflammation.
Cells that engulf and digest bacteria and other foreign substances as well as debris from dead cells are called macrophage. Macrophage also stimulate white blood cells to respond to pathogens.
Macrophages are "big eaters" and are a type of white blood cell that engulf and digest cellular debris, foreign substances, microbes, and cancer cells in a process called phagocytosis.

Hello students of T-STEMThe white blood cell that defends against foreign materials is called the antibodies. ~Thank you
No, basophils do not engulf and digest bacteria. Basophils are a type of white blood cell that release chemicals like histamine to promote inflammation and help the body defend against parasites and allergens. Phagocytic white blood cells like neutrophils and macrophages are responsible for engulfing and digesting bacteria.
Phagocytosis
Leucocytes are blood cells that engulf and digest bacteria and fungi; and is an important part of the body's defence system.

The medical term for a large monocyte that leaves the blood and enters tissue spaces to destroy worn out red blood cells and foreign materials is "macrophage." Macrophages are key players in the immune response and function to engulf and digest cellular debris and pathogens.
