This is the scene right now in Rafah in southern Gaza amid reports of an attempted kidnapping of a soldier after an ambush on IDF troops in the area. This followed an earlier mortar attack by Gaza militants that marked the end of a short lived, or should I say more appropriately, non-existent "ceasefire". Unprecedented numbers of IDF units are now streaming into the Rafah area, including two of the most elite forces in the entire army.
Update: The IDF has now confirmed that an IDF soldier has been abducted following an attack by a suicide bomber on Israeli troops in east Rafah while they were working to decommission a tunnel. The attack by Hamas reportedly occurred two and a half hours into the agreed 72 hour ceasefire.
