IDF Nachal combat soldiers carried out a major operation overnight Wednesday to conquer Outpost 17, a Hamas stronghold in West Jabaliya in the northern Gaza Strip.
The soldiers waged a valiant ten-hour battle against Hamas and Islamic Jihad terrorists at the outpost, both above ground and in subterranean tunnels, killing dozens of terrorists and uncovering tunnel shafts, including a shaft located near a kindergarten that led to an extensive underground tunnel route.
In the course of the operation, the soldiers also discovered significant Hamas operational plans at the outpost.
Also overnight Wednesday, Air Force fighter jets carried out hundreds of strikes against Hamas targets.

WHERE ARE THE HOSTAGES ?????? RIBONO SHEL OLAM :((((
Interesting notes:
Idf must have superior night vision capabilities than terrorists / most battles happen at night it seems , either ambushes happen at night or idf advances or operates at night
What is with the dude straddling the fn mag gunner mid video?
Where do the infantry soliders safely keep their packs in gaza while they go on operations ?
Does the idf still use remote controlled tanks/ bulldozers?
Glad no casualties
