A Handful of Israeli Officers Saved 90 New Recruits from Hamas Terrorists
(Ha'aretz) Hilo Glazer - Six commanding officers, seven other army personnel, and one new recruit prevented Hamas' takeover of the Zikim training base on Oct. 7. These 14 fighters of the IDF Home Front Command's co-ed search and rescue brigade repelled 50 well-armed terrorists while under overwhelming fire, pulling out their fallen comrades and taking their places. Six officers and one recruit were killed. More than 90 new recruits who had been drafted just two months earlier, as well as 30 administrative staffers and civilians, were unharmed.
