The Israeli Cap of the Hilade Shalit stolen by Palestinian militants is contained in the underground bunker in the southern part of the gas sector. The 19-year-old soldier is guarded by seven people. This was reported on Wednesday by Reuters with reference to the newspaper Yedioth Ahronoth.
According to the publication, in the shelter there are enough food supplies in order to not appear on the surface for a long time and remain unnoticed.
In addition, the kidnappers do not use mobile communications for precautions, transmitting information through proxies.
Recall that the corporal of the Israeli Defense Army Gilan Shalit was captured by Palestinian militants hostage on June 25, who demanded in return for his liberation to release 1,500 Palestinian prisoners from Israeli prisons. The corporal was wounded, but the kidnappers provide him with the necessary medical care.
According to the Israeli side, there are three Palestinian groups behind the attack: the paramilitary wing of the Hamas, the Izeddin al-Kasama brigades, the committees of folk resistance and the little-known Army of Islam. In response, Israel began a military operation against the gas sector.
Israeli troops entered the territory of the gas sector, occupying its northern and southern units. On the eve of the Israeli defense army announced his intention to activate a military operation to search for the kidnappers of Gida Shalit. However, the military is still refraining from actions in Palestinian settlements, limiting themselves to aviation and artillery blows.
Earlier, the Palestinians presented the ultimatum to the Israeli authorities, demanding to release prisoners from prisons in exchange for the life of Gida Shalit. After the expiration of the ultimatum, which the Israelis rejected, the militants said that they would not kill Shalit, but Israel would not receive any information about their soldier.
