A Bedouin IDF officer defended Gaza division HQ on October 7
Update: 2024-11-05
Description
The HQ of the Gaza Division near Kibbutz Re’im is the most significant IDF base along the Gaza border.
It was overrun by Hamas within minutes but intense battles between Hamas fighters and IDF soldiers were going on till late that afternoon.
This is the story of one of the single most intense battles that took place on the base that day, led by a Bedouin officer and his team.
Many Bedouins serve in the IDF in frontline combat roles, primarily as scouts, due to their extensive familiarity with their local area and the ability to immediately detect footsteps or other changes in the terrain.
