Powerful Explosion
\n<\/strong>As part of a broad operation led by the IDF\u2019s 98th Division in northern Gaza, a Commando Brigade force was conducting a mission this morning to clear terror infrastructure in the dense urban area of Khan Younis. The force, which included soldiers from Maglan and other units, entered a building in western Bani Suheila around 06:10\u2014a densely packed zone known as a Hamas stronghold. The entry was likely aimed at locating weapons and verifying intelligence on underground terror activity. At this stage, the force proceeded on foot, conducting standard room-by-room and floor-by-floor searches.<\/p>\n

Shortly after entering, a powerful explosion occurred\u2014caused by a high-intensity charge hidden inside the building. According to assessments, the entire structure was booby-trapped, and the explosion caused it to collapse on the soldiers inside. Four soldiers were killed in the collapse, and five others were injured\u2014one seriously and four moderately. The extraction of the soldiers from the rubble took many hours and was carried out under the threat of additional explosives.<\/p>\n

“A Great Commitment to Stand Behind the Brave Generation of Fighters”
\n<\/strong>President Isaac Herzog eulogized: \u201cWith a broken and aching heart, I bow my head and mourn, together with all the people of Israel, the fall of our brave soldiers, our beloved sons, in the Gaza Strip.\u201d<\/p>\n

Herzog addressed the heavy toll of the war and said, \u201cThis is a time of great sorrow\u2014but also of great commitment: to stand behind the brave generation of fighters, to embrace the families of the fallen, and to ensure that their names and heroism will never be forgotten.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWe will never forget the sacrifice and heroism of the fallen, the wounded, and the extraordinary bereaved families. May their memory be blessed,\u201d he concluded.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
