The more we study the few details we have gathered from the rescue mission itself, we are shown that today's mission was nothing less than remarkable.

Have you ever wondered how it was like to see and live during an event that made history - like Entebbe?

Well - compared to what happened today in Nuseirat - Entebbe was a cakewalk.

Here, after months of investigation, intelligence gathering, planning and training - Israel pulled off something that has no peers in hostage rescue history.

The IDF and YAMAM troops that entered a dense population with terrorists and danger at every corner were able to enter the rooms the hostages were, according to plan, being held. 

The hostages were then released, and the troops had to leave the area that held tens of thousands of enemy, guarding the hostages with their very bodies, and extract them to the designated assembly area and the helicopters that awaited them.

During the last week, the 98th Commando division was operating in other areas of the city which we now know was done to make the enemy think our troops were busy elsewhere.

The troops on the ground received step-by-step "cover-fire" from Jets and drones, tanks and precise artillery.

With the little we know, it is obvious that the operation was super-complex on a level never done before.

The IDF and Shabak along with the same YAMAM national anti-terror unit have done in Judea and Samaria hundreds if not thousands of similar raids - but most were child's play compared to today's op.

After a very difficult month, Israelis have something to celebrate, something to be proud of. Like Entebbe - this is a mission that can change the whole direction of this war.

Thank God for our security apparatus where the different arms can work together, united as one, and, of course, our soldiers who keep amazing us, time after time in their willingness to do anything it takes to beat back our barbaric enemies.
