The IDF released for publication on Wednesday morning that three IDF soldiers were killed on Tuesday while battling Hamas terrorists in Rafah in the southern Gaza Strip.
The soldiers were killed in an explosion in a booby-trapped building. The blast also seriously wounded two officers and another two soldiers.
The soldiers, who served in the Nachal Brigade, were identified as Staff Sgt. Uri Bar Or, H’yd, 21, from Midreshet Ben-Gurion, Staff Sgt. Amir Galilove, H’yd, 20, from Shimshit, and Staff Sgt. Ido Appel, H’yd, from Tzofar.
Their deaths raise the death toll of soldiers killed in the ground war in Gaza to 291.
In addition to the four soldiers injured in the blast, another three soldiers and an officer from other IDF units were seriously wounded in battles in the Gaza Strip in the past 24 hours.

BDE.
One thing I don’t understand: where are all those super duper advanced robots or drones that are supposed to check out buildings before our boys ever walk in??
If the Israeli government insists on not bombing Gaza back into stone age, at the very least they should not send Jewish boys in just to discover that the place is booby-trapped.
That is why a lot of people would not consider alya until we get an actual Jewish government in the Land. The one that follows our holy Torah, and not just feeding our boys to the Moloch of “international public opinion”!
this is pure reshis on the part of Bibi to sacrifice BOYS not even men to appease Biden and the ICC which STILL considers him a war criminal instead of bombing the place like Putin does in Ukraine. EVERY SOLDIER is killed because Bibi wants to carry favor with the umos halom, this is EXACTLY AGAINST HALACHA which says you kill your enemy before he kills you. This is why us frum cannot bring ourselves to daven for a government like this but we can daven for soldiers safety.
