| "German Shepherds on steroids." [Daily Mail, where America gets its news] Israel has one of the most sophisticated armies in the world, with an arsenal of modern weapons, thousands of armed vehicles and hundreds of thousands of highly trained soldiers. But among the most valued units in its ranks is a four-legged fighting force which has already helped to eliminate Hamas terrorists, and is being deployed as part of the Israeli Defence Forces' intense ground offensive in Gaza. The dogs, who are part of the Oketz unit, each have specific jobs, with some trained to sniff out explosives, some to locate hidden threats and tunnel entrances, and others to track down and maul terrorists. The highly-trained Belgian Malinois have been utilised by Israel's army for years - and now their skills are being deployed on the streets of Gaza and in Hamas's subterranean tunnels. As the IDF continues to forge a path through the heart of Gaza City in their operation to root out Hamas, MailOnline takes a look at the crack canine division which stands out as one of the most versatile and feared units on the battlefield. |

| #2 it is very sad when a dog is killed. However, it is a tragedy if an IDF soldier is killed instead. |
