Top German paper runs story ‘Faces of the fallen’ IDF soldiers
Top-selling German newspaper Bild runs a piece entitled “Faces of the fallen,” about the 64 Israeli soldiers who died fighting Hamas in the Gaza Strip. Alongside photos of the slain IDF troops, the paper says that the men are “64 sons, boyfriends, husbands who are unable to return to their families. They’ve fallen in the Gaza Strip in a battle with Hamas for their home.”
It tweets a composite photo of the killed soldiers, which also appears in its article.
