Women Combat Soldiers Who Operate Deep in Lebanon Describe Their Missions

While debate continues at home over integrating women into combat roles in the IDF, Team A, female soldiers from the Sky Rider unit, has been operating beyond the Litani River in Lebanon. According to the report, their missions have helped lead to the killing of dozens of Hezbollah militants.

The soldiers are now summing up another lethal operation and preparing for the next one. Their work is taking place deep inside Lebanese territory, far from the Israeli border, as part of ongoing military activity against Hezbollah.

One of the soldiers said, "The burden of proof is on us, it makes us operate with greater professionalism." The quote was presented as part of a broader picture of women serving in combat positions and carrying out sensitive operational tasks in the field.
