The Al-Quds Brigades, the military wing of the Islamic Jihad Movement, revealed on Tuesday details of an operation aimed at capturing an Israeli soldier in the city of Khan Younis in southern Gaza.

A commander in the Al-Quds Brigades stated that last Tuesday, "a special operation was carried out targeting an Israeli armored personnel carrier in eastern Abasan al-Kabira, east of Khan Younis, with the goal of capturing Israeli soldiers."
He explained that the operation began with the detonation of explosive devices that destroyed the armored vehicle, followed by a close-quarters engagement with its crew. During the clash, brigade members managed to drag an Israeli soldier out of the vehicle in an attempt to capture him.
The commander added that Israeli military vehicles heavily bombarded the site of the operation, which hindered the capture and resulted in the soldier's death.
It is worth noting that the Israeli army often enacts what is known as the “Hannibal Procedure,” a military protocol that involves unleashing intense firepower to prevent the capture of its soldiers—even at the risk of harming the soldier being captured.
