The IDF on Sunday evening released footage from the camera of an IDF Shayetet 13 commando in Gaza.
The footage shows the moments in which the rescued hostages were transferred to helicopters – a CH-53 “Sea Stallion” and UH-60 “Black Hawk” – near the Gazan coast to be flown home to Israel.
The transfer was carried out under fire by Yamam officers, Shin Bet agents and Paratrooper soldiers.
According to details that emerged about the daring rescue operation on Sunday, the special forces unit that first entered Gaza disguised themselves as displaced Gazas from Rafah.
