Soroka Hospital in Beersheba says the conditions of two soldiers who were seriously wounded in the attempt to rescue hostages from the Gaza Strip on Thursday night have improved, and are now listed in moderate-to-serious condition.
The IDF had said the operation was unsuccessful, as no hostages were rescued, but that the troops managed to kill several Hamas operatives.
