IDF: Troops killed at border post didn’t return fire after Egyptian officer attacked
[IsraelTimes] Initial probe into killing of 3 soldiers indicates policeman entered Israel through emergency gate, acted alone; Gallant speaks with Egyptian counterpart, stresses bilateral tiesThe Israeli military on Saturday evening said it believed an Egyptian policeman who killed three soldiers in southern Israel earlier in the day infiltrated through the border using an emergency gate, and that two soldiers killed in an initial attack did not fire back. Could it be that the policeman was wreaking vengeance on the IDF unit that intercepted the drug shipment? Because nothing else makes sense to me after he went through the emergency gate — to which surely he ought not have had a key. The three Israeli soldiers killed by the Egyptian policeman were named by the Israel Defense Forces as Staff Sgt. Ori Yitzhak Iluz, Staff Sgt. Ohad Dahan and Sgt. Lia Ben Nun.Posted by: trailing wife 2023-06-04 |
