They have not seen their home for two months, but when they are inside Gaza they work. The brigade combat team of the paratroopers fought last week in the neighborhoods of Zeitoun and Shajaiya in the heart of Gaza City. The fighters eliminated terrorists, arrested terrorists who were transferred for investigations, uncovered underground shafts and destroyed four main tunnel systems.
