The operation freeing two Argentinian hostages from Nir Yitzhak, Fernando Herman and Louis Norbeto, started with dozens of airstrikes against Hamas's Shabura battalion. The Shin Bet, IDF and special police forces early morning on Monday rescued two hostages from Hamas in the heart of Rafah.

Around 1:00 a.m., the operation freeing two Argentinian hostages from Nir Yitzhak, Fernando Herman and Louis Norbeto, started with dozens of airstrikes against Hamas's Shabura battalion so they would not understand the true goal of rescuing the hostages, ages 61 and 70.

Thank G-d they got the 2 hostages out. Now if all the others still alive could be rescued. El Retardo can drop dead, along with Mayorkass, McConnell, Schumer et al.

Indeed. A small Entebbe. An homefront morale booster. The surrenderists might shut their pie holes

Shin Bet is the Israeli FBI. Internal security.

From Amir Tsarfati’s telegram thread:

BREAKING NEWS: TWO HOSTAGES WERE RESCUED ALIVE!

It was allowed to be published that in a joint operation by the IDF, the Shin Bet and the Israel Police (YMM) in Rafah, two Israeli hostages, Fernando Simon Marman (60) and Louis Har (70), who were kidnapped by Hamas to the Gaza Strip from Nir Yitzhak in 7/10.

The condition of the two is good and they were taken for medical tests at the Sheba Tel Hashomer Medical Center.

The security forces will continue to act in all efforts to recover the abductees.


If you are still asking why we MUST enter into Rafah - now you know!

The hostage rescue operation began at 1:00AM after long weeks of preparations, training and modeling. Mobility unit 5515 secretly brought the Shin Bet and the Israeli Defense Forces into the Shabura neighborhood in Rafah. At the same time, the Air Force attacked dozens of nearby targets. The force came down from the roof and detonated a bomb to breach the door on the second floor, eliminated the Hamas guards and picked up the two abductees. Additional Hamas gunmen fired from nearby buildings, but the IDF fighters deployed in the street fired at them in a battle that lasted for a long hour. The evacuation to a safe airstrip outside the neighborhood involved the participation of 7th Brigade tanks and massive fire from the Air Force. A Blackhawk helicopter brought Fernando and Luis to Sheba hospital safely - where their relatives were waiting for them.

Hamas is begging the Egyptians, Qataris and Turks to do whatever they can to help stopping the IDF from entering into Rafah. They know their end is near.
A reminder: an immediate release of all of our hostages and a complete surrender of all Hamas terrorists can stop this war right now!

How do you think we know where abductees are held? The successful interrogations of those we’ve captured and the priceless information we gathered at Hamas headquarters.

Can’t stop the tears from falling down in the past 2 hours….
I was following this operation since shortly after 4AM without knowing the main purpose of it. I knew that by the scope of it, this must be a very special operation. However, like most of us - we picture all hostages under the ground in deep terror tunnels and we forget that many of them for obvious reasons are spread all around Rafah in buildings above the ground.

The operation to clear Rafah of terrorists has begun: at least 50 terrorist targets were attacked tonight in the Rafah area, over 60 terrorists killed, hundreds of terrorists wounded. This is the last stronghold of Hamas in the Gaza Strip.

Hamas whines in response: “Israel ignores the decisions of the court in The Hague.” Look Who’s talking.


Over 100 terrorists were killed tonight in an operation in Rafah

Satanic pressure from around the world will mount in the next few days to NOT allow Israel to enter Rafah. Satan wants Hamas to survive. We won’t allow that! Even if it’s going against the whole world! Only complete victory! Enough is enough!

The rescue operation took 45 minutes. The two hostages were hugged by the fighters who carried them out of the building under fire to a safe zone.
Most of the fire was AFTER the rescue to secure their safe arrival to the Blackhawk helicopter.

And the Western politicians (conservative and socialists alike) are doing their best to support Hamas. Here from Daily Telegraph:

Israel should ‘think seriously’ before going into Rafah, warns [UK foreign minister] Cameron.

Well, the Israelis did think seriously and managed to save two of the hostages. So far no comment from Cameron regarding the successful rescue. But what did we expect?

I’m glad Israel is leaving no stone unturned in freeing the hostages. Israel is not afraid to spend blood, sweat, and treasure in destroying the monsters that took their own.

If I were one, I’d take some solace in knowing that every time I feel the earth tremble the IDF is making another push to free the hostages.
