JUST IN: Hebrew Media is reporting a ‘black Saturday’.
More than 7 Israeli soldiers killed and more than 11 injured [Officially announced so far is 4 killed and 3 injured]
A patrol led by the deputy commander of the “Nahal” Brigade was traveling down a side street in an area that the Israeli army described as “cleared,” meaning that resistance there had been completely eliminated. This occurred in Beit Hanoun, at the northernmost tip of the Gaza Strip and a short distance from the border overlooking Israeli settlements.
A powerful IED, manufactured by the resistance using remnants of Israeli military equipment, detonated inside one of the vehicles, killing three soldiers and officers who were inside. Following this, Palestinian resistance fighters completed the mission by directly firing on the convoy to confirm the casualties, as well as on the rescue team, before reportedly withdrawing from the area through a tunnel.
