In a stunning battlefield reversal, the IDF admitted to its first major failure in southern Gaza after Hamas fighters launched a sudden tunnel ambush.
Over 20 Hamas operatives emerged, splitting into groups and striking with rifles, grenades, and RPGs.
The clash led to intense close combat, leaving three Israeli soldiers wounded and several Hamas fighters dead.
Despite airstrikes and tanks being called in, eight militants escaped underground.
Analysts say this attack is a warning of the brutal battles ahead if Israel pushes deeper into Gaza.
