12/03/2009 Minefild rescue failure (IDF 669)

An Israeli civilian mistakenly went to a minefield close to Beit She’an valley. Both his legs were cut off by exploded mine. Something goes wrong with the rescue binding and he fall from a helicopter, down to his death. As far as I know this is the first tragedy of this kind that happened in the grate IDF rescue unit 996 (except training accidents). via (C) ,7340,L-3685039, אנשי ההצלה לא יכלו להגיע לעאלא אגבריה ששכב פצוע בשדה מוקשים בעמ
