The leader of the 13th Battalion, Lt. Col. Tomer, described their encounter with Hamas fighters. "They emerged from tunnels, surrounding us, launching rocket-propelled grenades at us, and attempting to approach our armored personnel carriers to set explosives," he said. "Owing to meticulous preparations, we succeeded in countering their offensive, eliminating few while driving off the rest. We launched aerial strikes, fired artillery, and engaged them using our APC forces. Ultimately, they were neutralized and we persist in our operation until we win."
