A devastating attack in the southern Gaza Strip yesterday claimed the lives of seven Israeli soldiers after a terrorist managed to attach an explosive device to their armored personnel carrier (APC). The incident is one of the deadliest in recent weeks and has left the nation mourning deeply.
Six of the fallen soldiers have been named:
🇮🇱️ Matan Shai Yashinovski
🇮🇱️ Ronel Ben-Moshe
🇮🇱️ Niv Radia
🇮🇱️ Ronen Shapiro
🇮🇱️ Shahar Manoav
🇮🇱️ Maayan Baruch Pearlstein
The identity of the seventh soldier is being withheld until their family has been officially notified.
These courageous young men were serving to protect and defend Israel under increasingly difficult conditions. Their sacrifice will not be forgotten.
🕯️ May their memory be a blessing, and may their families be comforted among the mourners of Zion and Jerusalem.
