Troops of the Givati Brigade operating in northern Gaza’s Beit Hanoun located over the weekend a tractor that had been looted by Palestinian terrorists from Kibbutz Kfar Aza during the October 7, 2023, onslaught.

Last night, the forces retrieved the tractor from inside the Strip, and this morning returned it to its owners, the military says.

On a large poster attached to the tractor, the soldiers wrote: “To the residents of Kfar Aza, with love from the Givati Brigade.”
