How IDF UAVs Saved Lives in Gaza
(Israel Defense Forces) "It bothers me that the world doesn't see how hard we work to minimize harm to civilians. When I say 'we,' I mean me personally and my staff. The majority of our work is to prevent harm to innocent people," said Maj. S, the deputy commander of the IDF's UAV Squadron 200. Maj. R, a senior commander in the squadron, added: "We had our target in reach. It was an armed terrorist with the aim of attacking us. Right before the strike, we saw him enter some kind of yard, full of children....You know he is close to kids, so you immediately cease the strike."
