Like October 7: IDF soldiers spot activity in Gaza
IDF soldiers monitoring the border with Gaza report terrorist activity near the 'yellow line' reminiscent of preparations for October 7. They are placing explosive devices, and the troops express alarm and a sense of déjà vu, noting that their warnings may again be ignored. One female soldier stated that combat units are being used as 'human shields'.
IDF soldiers responsible for monitoring the border with the Gaza Strip are warning of activity by armed terrorist groups inside the enclave that resembles preparations for the October 7, 2023 attack. According to them, militants are placing explosive devices in the area of the 'yellow line' that separates territories under Israeli and Hamas control. One female soldier said she feels as if it is October 6 again, and that the only difference is that the activity is spotted near the 'yellow line' rather than at the border fence. Another soldier admitted feeling 'helpless', and a third said they feel unnecessary if their reports are not acted upon. It was also suggested that combat units in Gaza are being used as 'human shields', as they are positioned a few hundred meters from the militants. The article recalls that before the October 7 attack, observers' warnings were ignored, and some female staff linked this to gender stereotypes. The report is based on a Channel 12 report and anonymous sources.
