The IDF has rubbished claims by Hamas that it had captured an Israeli soldier during operations in Jabaliya refugee camp in northern Gaza.
The terrorist group claimed it had killed or captured a number of Israeli soldiers during an ambush inside a tunnel.
An undated Hamas video showed a bloodied body being dragged along the ground as well as images of machine guns purportedly captured – but which the Times of Israel said were “not commonly used by the Israeli military”.
In response to the claims, the IDF issued a statement to make clear “there is no incident of a soldier’s kidnapping”.
