A Hamas squad killed IDF soldier Omer Tabib, 21, and injured three others on Wednesday near Netiv Ha’Asara.
Maglan, which is means Ibis bird in Hebrew, is an Israeli special operations unit that specializes in operating behind enemy lines, deep in enemy territory, using advanced technologies and weaponry. It is part of the IDF’s Commando Brigade.
The special technology it uses is a military secret.

The IDF has advanced intelligence-collecting methods it uses across the border from the Strip, providing full control of the intelligence situation and rapid deployment of forces with countermeasures.
These two crucial elements have led to the IDF’s success in this mission.
