IDF Officer Killed in Jenin Anti-Terror Operation
(Ynet News) Yoav Zitun - Captain Alon Sacgiu, 22, was killed early Thursday during a counter-terror operation in the West Bank's Jenin refugee camp when two bombs buried deep below ground at the camp's entrance exploded. 16 IDF soldiers were injured in the blasts. An armored D9 bulldozer had cleared the route for the forces with its scoop on the ground to uncover hidden explosives, but two of the explosives were buried at a depth of at least one and a half meters. When an armored personnel carrier passed over the first explosive, which detonated, their fellow troops hurried toward them to help treat and evacuate them, at which stage another explosion took place.
