This footage, a compilation of helmet-cam and drone video, shows an non-designated IDF paratrooper element engaging Hamas gunmen in Northern Gaza. As buildings and rooms are cleared, a small drone is sent in to ensure that all the Hamas fighters inside have been killed. This individually-sourced footage differs from that of official IDF media outlets in that the KIAs are shown. For this reason, viewer discretion is advised.
The IDF troops fire into the windows and doorways, then send in the drone to check their work. The proliferation of super-portable, inexpensive drones is rapidly changing the face of what we know as CQB, substantially reducing the risk in, and thereby the time spent addressing, the unknown. Inside, the Hamas dead and their weaponry litter the floor.
