"In their most audacious attack Saturday, Hamas fighters dressed in Israeli army uniforms slipped from central Gaza into Israel through a tunnel and attacked an Israeli army patrol, killing two soldiers and injuring two others. The army returned fire, killing one militant and forcing the rest back through the tunnel into the Palestinian territory."

But I may be wrong.

Nope, that was earlier.

These guys were not dressed as IDF forces.

The video was from Monday when they killed 5 soldiers by smuggling into Israel via a terror tunnel.

What/when/where was this? Can anyone please put a link or describe the story in short.

Seems like this was Nachal Oz story.  It's all over the news by now.

[alpicone]

this is just horrifying, I can't believe we are discussing a ceasefire with these barbarians

Was it just me or did anybody notice this frame in the shorter version of this video at the 1:46 mark? I cant read Arabic so I cant tell if it has any info regarding who created the video or if it is from whoever posted this shortened version.

I've come to the conclusion that Israel is gonna lose this war, with their stupid pandering to the international community & stupid ceasefires while hamas laughs & just shoots more & more rockets, when will they realise that whatever they do they will be slammed by the world.
Can't the politicians give the army clear objectives & not leave them in limbo

Ha I wish I could say that the army should give civilians 48 hours to leave & then blow gaza to hell but thats not going to happen.

more & more commanders are complaining about the lack of objective strategy, ceasefires are being negotiated without accomplishing anything & the government hasn't given any clear direction as to what their plans are. Its highly likely that they will pull out of gaza without even having finished blowing up the tunnels.
All the time hamas is just getting bolder & bolder

also why doesn't the army embed journalists with the troops on the ground, it was used to great success by the Americans during the Iraq war,
And will give them an idea of what the troops are facing on the ground

One reason is probably because they are using classified equipment and methods.

5:04 P.M. An interrogation of a Hamas commander arrested by the IDF revealed that he had been given course training in kidnapping, paragliding, and anti-tank ambushes. The Palestinian also pointed out a sniper position on the tenth floor of the Red Crescent building. He told his interrogators that he and 10 other militants were sent to Malaysia to practice flying paragliders, for years ago. A short time before Operation Protective Edge began, they underwent another training session in preparation for a terror attack inside Israel. (Gili Cohen)

Tunnel found in UNRWA health clinic

More details emerge on the booby-trapped tunnel uncovered in the southern Gaza Strip today:

An Israeli elite squad searching for tunnels near Khan Younis uncovers a booby-trapped opening in a small UNRWA health clinic.

The troops send in sniffing dogs and a small robot to minimize damage to the structure, but despite the precautionary measures, the explosives rigged to the tunnel are detonated, demolishing the building on top of the soldiers.

Earlier reports indicated that a number of soldiers were injured.

Brig. Gen. Micky Edelstein says militants have used more than a thousand IEDs so far, destroying thousands of buildings in the Gaza Strip.

For instance, he says, in sweeps of a single street of 28 buildings last night, 19 were found to be booby-trapped.
