In a Rosh Hashanah neis, a sniper from Hamas in Beit Hanoun, Gaza, attempted to kill a soldier from the IDF’s Netzach Yehuda battalion, but miraculously failed. The bullet missed the soldier by a hair. Upon hearing the sound of the sniper’s shot and the bullet whizzing by him, the soldier and his comrades took cover, avoiding injury.
Hamas released a falsified video, claiming that the IDF soldier was killed in the attack. However, the soldier was unharmed, and the IDF has debunked the terrorist propaganda.
The Netzah Yehuda battalion, a unit consisting of chareidi soldiers, has been operating in the northern Gaza Strip for nearly a year, achieving major successes. During Rosh Hashana, the battalion was engaged in maneuvers deep within Beit Hanoun, where they neutralized multiple terror targets.

What’s the need to specify he’s Chareidi? There’s no difference
Unless there was a supernatural intervention, like a malach turning the gun of the savage away from this Jew, then this would be an example of hashgacha pratis, not a miracle.
A Rosh Hashanah neis? Is that like a December 25th miracle? This sounds not good. I’m sure whoever wrote this story could have chosen much better metaphors.
If the soldier was not chareidi would it still be a neis?

Was Purim a miracle?
Not any plain Haredi soldier, we’re talking about a Tzanzer chossid here!
It’s plainly obvious to everyone that Netzach Yehuda has an added shmira due to it’s enhanced Qdusha environment!
While it is great that this soldier was B”H unharmed, what about all the other soldiers, many Shomrei Torah uMitzvos, who were R”L not zocheh to be saved? Publicly calling this a neis and implying that this soldier was on a madreiga to deserve such divine intervention while other soldiers were not is a bit insensitive.
