On Sunday, 06/25/2006, at 05:40 in the morning, a terrorist group of several Palestinians crossed the border south of the Gaza Strip into Israel through a tunnel near Kerem Shalom and attacked an army facility that was within the sovereign territory of Israel.

The force numbered 8-armed Palestinians. It penetrated about a hundred meters into Israeli territory and split into three groups. The first group shot at an armored car that stood there. It was empty so no one was hurt. The second group attacked an IDL post manned by soldiers of the Desert Patrol. This attack included explosives and gunfire from light weapons which wounded three Israeli soldiers. At the same time at least one rocket was fired and grenades were thrown at a tank positioned in the area. The tank was manned by four soldiers one of whom was Gilad Schalit. The missile hit the rear end of the tank causing the death of its commander and an additional soldier. One soldier was wounded.
Gilad Schalit, the fourth soldier in the tank, was wounded in the shoulder and was abducted from the tank and taken by the terrorists to the Gaza strip.

Gilad’s abductors were members of the Izz ad-Din al-Qassam Brigades (the military wing of Palestinian governing party Hamas), the Popular Resistance Committees (which includes members of Fatah, Islamic Jihad and Hamas), and the Army of Islam.

On Monday, 06/26/2006, the Palestinians declared they were willing to give information about Gilad in return for the release of all female and under 18 years old security prisoners held in Israeli prisons.

On Saturday, 07/01/2006, the Palestinians demanded an additional 1000 prisoners be released.

Two days later they set a 24-hour ultimatum. A few hours later Israel stated that it would not cede to the terrorists’ demands.

There is no information as to Gilad’s welfare as for now.
On Sunday, 06/18/2006, Udi and Eldad were called up for reserve service on the northern border. They were meant to serve 28 days. The service was to include security patrols along the border and other security tasks for the defense of Israel's northern settlements.

Wednesday morning, 07/12/2006, was the last day of their service. Udi and Eldad packed their things and prepared to go home immediately after their last patrol. The patrol included two vehicles, Humvees, that advanced parallel to the border fence from west to east, from Zar’it to Shetula, within Israel's sovereign territory. Udi was sitting in the right front seat. Eldad was sitting right behind him.

Nothing out of the ordinary happened until 09:05, at which time the Hezbollah heavily bombarded the whole region. This turned out to be a diversion for the planned kidnapping of the soldiers.

At this point the Humvees were in a passage in the wadi, when they were suddenly attacked by a group of Hezbollah terrorists.

The leading Humvee in which Udi and Eldad were riding, was hit first by anti-tank RPG missiles.

The second vehicle, 50 – 60 meters behind, reported by radio the hit of the first vehicle before it, too, was hit directly by two anti-tank missiles. The three soldiers in this Humvee were killed.

After the strikes, the terrorists opened fire from lighter weapons in the direction of the wounded soldiers and the damaged vehicles. The driver of the first Humvee managed to stop it and to climb out, taking with him the wounded soldier sitting behind him. Under cover of the firing, Udi and Eldad were kidnapped and taken to Lebanese soil. It is unknown whether they managed to climb out of the vehicle before they were kidnapped. Nor is it known how hurt they were. Footsteps, bloodstains and a hole in the fence were found at the scene.

Immediately after the incident the first attempt was made to locate Udi and Eldad. Four additional soldiers were killed during this attempt. This chain of events led to the beginning of the fighting in the north.
