I saw an interview with the soldier in the last clip. the reason he was alone is that the team was on the bottom floor and got engaged by grenades and small arms, amidst the chaos he pushed to the top floor not noticing he was alone, and got in a fight without a chance to pull back to his team fighting on the bottom floor. the grenade blew up exactly at the doorway, he received a lot of shrapnel in his legs. and some to the upper body. he recalls after the grenade went off he thought that he was toast if he didn't get up and continue the fight since the backup wasn't close. adrenaline was pumping he got up and got rid of therat, later medevaced to an Israeli hospital. The dude is a reservist in the Israeli "yalaom" unit, an SF unit compared to the u.s combat engineers/EOD units. absolute beast. as an Israeli infantryman, I'm surprised that he was standing in this clip with the weight of his massive balls.

An interesting fact about the guy in the last video, he is a reservist in the Yehlam unit.. He was injured in most of his body from the grenade that the terrorist threw at him and still got up and continued to fight! He said in an interview from the hospital, "We arrive at an apartment building that is part of a Hamas combat complex, we understand this because I saw my duo start firing a barrage while he turned the other guys back. I come to advance in their direction and realize that I can't because there is shooting in his direction, terrorists are throwing grenades at us. I waited, there were several explosions, I go back out and then the first terrorist arrives. I launch a volley, the terrorist falls in my direction. I know they know I'm there and start maneuvering louder to give more fire. Another grenade arrives, I retreat to the same corner and an explosion happens and I realize that if I don't get out now or I continue to receive grenades or get shot... I spotted the second terrorist taking out another grenade, I throw a volley at him, realize that there is no other terrorist in the immediate vicinity and collapse. The legs stopped working. The guys catch me and start the evacuation process and here we are.' The fighter Yair Ben Shushan was among the first to witness the event and he was the one who cleared the fighter you see in the clip, wounded and bleeding. He says "This is one of the fastest evacuations that took place during the war. It was not caught. He's a crazy guy, don't know how he did it. I thought at first that maybe it wasn't the same fighter I evicted from the scene. The whole team was shocked." I hope I translated well from Hebrew. My English is not that good.

I remember about 10 years ago all of the war colleges and military think tanks were discussing how future warfare would move into the megacities. Now we're primarily seeing a lot of combat taking place in large dense urban environments. The discussions were interesting when it came to cyber warfare and drones. We're seeing new domains being integrated into the battlespace. It does make one wonder if near future warfare will involve mostly digital and cyber engagements with small units. Who knows but it's interesting to observe in it's development.

This scenario of urban warfare fought in street and alleys narrow, reminds me of the videos I usually see of the military police of the State of RJ (Rio de Janeiro), here in Brazil. The intensity is almost the same, but of course there's a difference between fighting terrorists who are much better trained and armed than criminals, I mean, the drug dealer also has an Ak-47, but the terrorists also have RPGs and rockets.

[@BlackMamba-nd3hj]

can you define what terrorist is?

[@janey_fromTheBlock]

@@BlackMamba-nd3hj Radical far left/ right armed gangster or militant organizations which motivated by religious, political, or ideological beliefs and committed in the pursuit of goals that are usually political. Some militant organization may overthrow an internationally recognized government body as a de facto ruler. It may be designated as terrorist group due to number of criteria such as 1. No diplomatic relation 2. Not maintained/authorized by head of sovereign state 3. Forcefully overthrowing a legitimate government 4. Funded by a country that is sanctioned 5. Any country that is affiliated with terrorist groups may face blockade by its allies For example : 1. Iran - hamas, hezbollah, houthi 2. Muslim Brotherhood - qatar. (Qatar allegedly sponsored MB n faced blockade by its muslim neighboring countries for several years) this happened back in 2019 3. Taliban - Afghanistan (overthrown the government) 4. Al qaeda - bombing its own muslim fellas in middle east n usa even my country 5. Isis 6. Boko haram 7. Liwa zainebiyoun

Just for clarification, at 6:30 he says “don’t fire on the truck over there [around the corner]. If I tell you to retreat, pass me and we cover each other” Also, the smoke can come from either smoke grenades or a nearby tank that has been outfitted with smokescreen covers. The soldiers are shooting a lot as a form of suppressive fire, so every time you have an encounter it’s much better to shoot at any opening or walls and corners where they might be hidden behind, and move forward to close quarters contact. The video at 9:00 is the Yahalom elite combat engineering unit. They are on the same levels of combat training as Matkal, Shaldag, Duvdevan etc and regularly operate inside tunnels, deep insertion missions and highly sensitive explosive ordinance operations. So in terms of CQB they are definitely up there. He calls out “tango down!”

My CQB training was very different. The best way I could describe it was "cautious violence of action". Our instructors would put tripwires and booby traps connected to training grenades (the ones that just make a little puff of smoke for the non-military people) and I remember being so frustrated when you had the building almost completely clear, there was 1 room left and suddenly "puff", 1 simulated dead and 3 simulated wounded on a 6 man stack. Yeah you could say "but just toss a frag and be done with it", but you have to consider it's an urban center, there's a probability of civilians inside being used as human shields. Unless the intel told you "there's no civilians here, only enemies", some of the more creative recruits would just call anything with a .50 and tell the gunner "light that building up, just don't melt the barrel", same with a Mk19. Edit: Something I forgot. A group of us were sent to the US and train with the 82nd airborne and we practiced CQC, and noticed some of your guys had extremely potent flashlights, even during the day. I think I asked a staff sergeant or sergeant 1st class as to why and he told me "shine that in the face of the enemy" and me, being the dumbass I am, asked him if he would do it to me. Needless to say, it felt like trying to win a staring contest against the sun and when he turned it off, I couldn't see anything for a couple of seconds. I bought the same flashlight he had that same day.

[@nastycodm4383]

It’s not worth anything when every terrorist stand behind children and eventually the soldiers don’t shoot,a lot soldiers die and injured in this situation. Israel also fights against lefties in the world and also inside Israel,they make sure Hamas get unlimited supplies when Israeli hostages don’t get medical treatment. it’s unfair when Israel fights in this condition and all that equipment it’s nothing if you can’t use it properly. Israel don’t even close to release the hostages or destroy Hamas which is the 2 main goals and we already see Israel try to finish this war because in US they said it’s enough,all the US military support not worth it if US decided to stop the war. Also about the difference in terms of military,Israel have the right to use the most advanced technology to destroy their enemies,Israel wasted their money to defend themselves and Hamas wasted his money for tunnels and rockets.

[@iHadNoName]

I'll give some context as an IDF soldier, fresh out of Gaza (feel free to ask questions!) 1st video (school): not a special unit but just the regular combat brigades we have, decently trained - nothing special, no casualties. P.S - after eliminating the threat they took the Hammas terrorist's body cams and you can also have the POV of the other side aswell, very interesting to see. edit: my bad, first video is Lotar (counter terrorism) definitely a special unit by all means, just as a part of a bigger infantry at the same area. 2nd video (shaft): not much to show, just hammas again using highly populated areas to make sure they have human shields - preferably kids. 3rd video (hebrew): this is brigade 601 of the combat engineering corps, they are trained to be fighters but that's not in they're nature, decent fighters but not as trained as the previous 2. they excel in armored vehicles, exploding infrastructure, tunnels and using heavy mechanical equipment to reveal the surface and avoid explosive charges. in this video we dont see a front line fighting, can seem like theyre just shooting walls for no reason, but in that video the guys who went inside first had 1 casualty and 1 terrorist dead. the reason you see people moving with massive backpacks is thay some people went down thinking they're heading to a location where they will take a small rest, or have critical equipment in it - paramedics for example might prefer having all they're medical supplies and have others do the fighting. many soldiers dont have a armoured viechle following them nowadays to carey the rucksack. 4th video: in this video you see soldiers from the commando devision which has the units Maglan, Egoz, Duvdevan. these soldiers go through 16 months of training and should be much more trained conpared to the videos before, they are manuvering inside gaza by foot, thats why rucksack is always on the back, usually when u have real contact you just drop it and return to it (altough sometimes its dangerous to return to where you've been) out of the 3 Egoz and Maglan have many different capabilities outside of war, and Duvdevan is probably the more experienced unit when it comes to CQB. this u it operates a lot inside the west bank, also very dense and populates and arrest terrorists. usually have a lot of experience in this terrain and combat style. and as you said, seeing so many people so close actually annoys me aswell, but can't judge as i dont know whats waiting outside 5th video (1 vs 2 terrorists): Disclaimer: im a bit biased as i serve in the same unit. first of all about the video - This unit is Yahalom, SOEU - special operations engineering unit. this is the special forces of the engineering corps, 16 months of training which are known to be very rough, the unit has 3 sub units in it, Samur - tunnle specialists, they use very advanced technology and methods to investigate the tunnles and look for hostages, they're the only military force to ebter the tunnles in gaza (Sayeret matkal and Shaldag rarely does that aswell) Sayeret Yael - mainly operating in the north border with lebanon and syria, they specialise in creating a passage through minefields while remaining unnoticed, they are specialists when it comes to camouflage but information on this is kind of limited, they are the number one force when it comes to sabotaging buildings with exlosives, both precisely and with minimun time and materials. and ofcourse theres SAP (the guy in the video btw) which is the EOD - Explosive Ordance Disposal. they go in the front, they make sure the force doesn't go on an explosive charge, they detect, make sure to avoid and rarely when required disables it (but thats mainly in the movie guys, just avoid it ffs). they are great fighters overall. now to the 5th video: the situation and why he was alone is because they were a few guys in a staircase leading to the building, and a grenade was thrown at them, because many people had to go back he had no choice but to go to that terrace on his own or just get hit by the nade. you also have to remember he is EOD sent to another force which he is not used to work with organically, so he is pretty much always 'on his own' and only has 1 more EOD from his unit with him. he yelled "terrorist down" to let the others know that threat is reduced. he is pretty lucky that hammas grenades are not the best quality, and he got lucky with where he got hit. he had no choice but to go alone after the grenade as he was moments from being thrown more grenades at him or shoot him through the walls. this guy is insane, really shows what the guys in Yahalom are made of. insane guy, insane video - for those interested he's alive and well with minor injuries.
