Let $L(X)$ be the space of bounded linear operators on the Banach space $X$. We study the strict singularity and cosingularity of the two-sided multiplication operators $S\,\mapsto \,ASB$ on $L(X)$, where $A,\,B\,\in \,L(X)$ are fixed bounded operators and $X$ is a classical Banach space. Let $1\,<\,p\,<\,\infty $ and $p\,\ne \,2$. Our main result establishes that the multiplication $S\,\mapsto \,ASB$ is strictly singular on $L\left( {{L}^{p}}\left( 0,\,1 \right) \right)$ if and only if the non-zero operators $A,\,B\,\in \,L\left( {{L}^{p}}\left( 0,\,1 \right) \right)$ are strictly singular. We also discuss the case where $X$ is a ${\mathcal{L}^{1}}-$ or a ${{\mathcal{L}}^{\infty }}-$space, as well as several other relevant examples.
