The Terror Attack: 15 Minutes from Start to Finish
(Ynet News) Roi Kais - On Monday, IDF Chief of Staff Lt.-Gen. Benny Gantz toured the scene of the attack with Southern Command Head Brig.-Gen. Tal Russo, who explained that the Egyptian armored vehicle stolen by the terrorists "met with an [IDF] force at every point it tried to infiltrate....There were quite a few clashes before it was destroyed. Armored forces, the Air Force and infantry forces closed in on it and eventually it was destroyed from the air and on the ground. Those who attempted to escape and fire at the [IDF] forces after it was destroyed were also eliminated." According to Gantz, the entire episode was over within 15 minutes.
