(Ynet News) Yoav Zitun - IDF soldiers manning Israel's Iron Dome missile defense system lost three of its soldiers in the Oct. 7 Hamas attacks. When the rocket barrages began at 6:30 a.m., the soldiers at the battery near the Gaza border launched intercepting missiles against numerous rockets, preventing dozens of rocket impacts and hundreds of casualties. Concerned that interceptor missiles could soon run out for other batteries stationed near the Gaza border, Capt. Sahar Saudian volunteered to provide ammunition to the other batteries, together with Sgt. Binyamin Gabriel and Sgt. Nativ Kuzaro. They encountered Hamas terrorists who opened fire on their vehicle. All three were killed.
