Initial hours after Gilad Shalit capture
The Israeli army published diaries documenting precise details of the operation that resulted in the kidnapping of soldier Gilad Shalit in the Gaza Strip in 2006, carried out by Hamas and the Resistance Brigades. The documents detail the attack that began at 5:13 a.m. at the Kerem Shalom crossing, where fighters attacked a tank and a military post using an underground tunnel. The attack resulted in the deaths of two soldiers and injuries to others, in addition to the kidnapping of Shalit and his transfer to Gaza. A state of confusion emerged within the Israeli army following the kidnapping operation, with the activation of the "Hannibal" protocol. The events led to widespread military operations and his eventual release after five years in a prisoner exchange deal.
