Brig. Gen. Yogev Bar Sheshet can consider himself fortunate that he was only ‘moderately wounded’. The previous commander of the Nahal Brigade, Col.Jonathan Steinberg was killed in clashes with Hamas on Oct 8 last year.<\/p>\n

Note also that five other members of the Nahal Brigade were killed the day that Brig. Gen. Bar Sheshet visited the Brigade\u2019s forward command team.<\/p>\n

The fact that the Israelis are taking casualties at such a high level indicates that the IDF has met very determined resistance with good intelligence. Ed.<\/p>\n
