Last night, while on an operation in Jenin to locate weapons, an IDF Golani recon unit identified a suspicious vehicle standing on the side of the road. Shots were fired then fired at the soldiers and they responded back killing 3 armed terrorists.

M-16 rifles, a Carlo weapon, cartridges and a bulletproof vest were found in the car by the soldiers after the engagement.

There were no injuries to our forces.

Today an IDF observation balloon got disconnected and fell inside the Gaza Strip. There is no suspicion of any significant leak of information. Locals there took it to Hamas. The IDF also fired 2 missiles into Gaza.

The incident will be reviewed.

Full routine continues on the Israeli home front.

Last night after 3am rockets were fired from Gaza into Israel and sirens were sounded all the way to Ashkelon.

This morning, when I was waking up to go to the Synagogue at about 6:40am I heard the airforce jets heading out somewhere and they don't fly on Shabbat unless something is going on. So at that time the IDF attacked a weapons manufacturing site and three other Hamas military posts.

A few months ago I posted about this hero Amir Joamis, who is an Israeli Bedouin fighter in the Magav who captured a terrorist that murdered 3 people including an elderly couple. Amir is also the younger brother of my friend חסיב ג'ואמיס who serves in the IDF Bedouin Reconnaissance Unit.

On Friday, my friend and CEO of Im Tirtzu (right wing org), Matan Peleg and others went to the Arab town called Zarzir to show respect to the many Arab heroes, alive and dead, in that town and one of them was Amir. This was the little gathering and ceremony they gave and also presented him with a certificate of appreciation.

Amir was very humble about it and said "First of all I am not a hero, I was just doing my job to protect Am Yisrael" 💪❤️

This was the post I made about this hero:
