The IDF releases dramatic footage showing troops of the Givati Brigade’s Shaked Battalion engaging in close-quarters combat with a Hamas gunman in the area of Gaza City’s Shifa Hospital.
As the troops searched a four-story building adjacent to Shifa, from which gunfire was previously directed at troops, they encountered a gunman who hurled grenades at them.
The troops are seen returning fire and then disengaging to search the rest of the building. Several minutes later, the gunman hurled additional grenades from the fourth floor, according to the IDF.
While attempting to run down the stairs and reach the soldiers, the gunman was shot dead by the troops, the footage shows.
