IDF commanders remembered one of the largest commando operations in IDF history that took place 12 years ago in Lebanon in this video released by the Israeli Air Force (IAF).
"I think it was one of the most complex operations ever preformed," Brig. Gen. (Res') Eliezer Shkedi, who was a commander during the IAF during the operation, said.
Over 200 hundred soldiers were sent to the frontlines of Hezbollah territories where there was no intel and "in the best case scenario you didn't know how you'd land,or how you'd return," Col. A', a commander who was part of the RPAV Division during the operation recalled.
"The message of this story is that Israel and the IDF can reach their enemies wherever they may be," concludes Shkedi.
