Dramatic footage from Khan Younis reveals a failed Hamas operation yesterday involving at least 12 armed terrorists. The squad reportedly attempted to ambush and kidnap IDF soldiers by hiding under blankets along a logistics route.

However, Golani Brigade troops spotted the operatives using drone surveillance and swiftly called in an Israeli Hermes 450 UAV. The terrorists retreated into a tunnel but were subsequently targeted. A Hamas drone was also spotted nearby, believed to be gathering intelligence during the operation.

The IDF has launched an investigation into the ambush attempt and the leaked video footage now spreading across social media platforms.
