The miracle of the Golani Patrol Commander
During a combined attack by a Hamas squad yesterday on a Golani patrol force in Khan Yunis, the terrorists attempted to throw an explosive device at a nearby armored personnel carrier - where the new patrol commander was staying.
The officer, who only took up his position about a week ago, was miraculously saved after the battalion commander's force recognized the danger and fired at the terrorist, pushing him away and preventing the explosive device from being thrown.
The incident occurred during a large-scale attempt by Hamas against IDF forces operating in the Gaza Strip. During the attack, the terrorists managed to attach an explosive device to another IDF vehicle, which caught fire from the force of the explosion.
Killed in the incident were Captain Amir Saad, a 22-year-old technology and maintenance officer from Yanuch-Jath, and Sergeant Yinon Noriel Vana, 20, from Kiryat Tivon, a technology and maintenance fighter in a patrol.
The attack took place yesterday at 6:30 PM in the Abbasnim neighborhood in eastern Khan Yunis. Terrorists who apparently came out of a tunnel managed to get very close to a Nimr armored personnel carrier and attach an explosive device.
The force of the explosion killed the two soldiers, who had entered Gaza to handle the tools.
