Exclusive footage from a recent attack near the Yitzhar Junction shows two Hamas terrorists exiting a stolen vehicle and opening fire on Israeli forces at a checkpoint. The incident, which occurred around 7:20 AM, involved an improvised checkpoint manned by soldiers from the Home Front Command's Ari Battalion. Security officials estimate the terrorists encountered the checkpoint by chance while en route to carry out a larger attack in civilian areas.
The ensuing firefight lasted approximately 20 minutes. A paratrooper force from the 101st Battalion, led by the deputy battalion commander, was dispatched to the scene and joined the Home Front Command soldiers and civilian security forces already engaged in combat. Following the exchange of fire, Israeli forces eliminated both terrorists.
A search of the terrorists' vehicle revealed a significant amount of ammunition, in addition to the ammunition in their weapons. These findings reinforced the assessment that the two were prepared to carry out a severe and prolonged attack against civilians. The Chief of Staff stated that a large quantity of ammunition was found in the terrorists' vehicle, preventing a major attack.
