Following the reports of the tragic events in Jabaliya, the IDF concluded an in-depth debrief. Based on all the IDF systems data, it appears that this event is the outcome of an Islamic Jihad rocket misfire. We did not conduct any activities in Jabaliya at the time of the event.

The year: 1944. Jews in Europe were in crisis. Hannah Szenes, a Jewish heroine, parachuted into Europe on an operation to save Jews from the Nazis.
She did not return.
On her 100th birthday, IDF paratroopers parachuted into the very same place to commemorate her daring mission.

Only a few hours before these pictures were taken, these young soldiers were injured in a terror attack in Jerusalem.
But that didn’t stop them from making it to their swearing-in ceremony & commit to defending our nation.
This is the resilience & strength of IDF soldiers.

Today and everyday, we proudly continue this mission.
