Two female IDF soldiers, Major Nurit and Linor, each had a leg amputated after an RPG attack in Gaza severely wounded them.

In the same operation during which Command Sergeant Major G’haleb Sliman Alnasasra was killed and two other soldiers were wounded, terrorists emerged from a tunnel. They fired an RPG at a vehicle carrying combat intelligence soldiers from the northern brigade.

Three female soldiers were severely wounded in the attack and transported by helicopters to Israeli hospitals.
