Two Israeli soldiers were located safely after losing radio contact with their unit in the Golan Heights. Volunteers from the Golan Rescue Unit were activated around 4 AM following reports of the soldiers’ disappearance, and established a forward command post in the Gilbon riverbed.
A police helicopter located the soldiers within a short timeframe. The incident appears to have resulted from loss of radio communication rather than any security threat. The soldiers were subsequently retrieved and the situation was resolved.
