The latest documentation of "Team Unit"

When the fighters on Lieutenant Paz Eliyahu's team entered the Gaza Strip in Operation Protective Edge, they also took a camera with them and documented every moment. The deadly explosion in Khan Yunis on July 23 killed the team leader and three of his fighters and dismantled "Paz" Unit forever.
