According to Israel Radio, soldiers had found a Hamas tunnel Thursday night, and were working on decommissioning it before Goldin and two other soldiers were attacked and killed.

They were working in separate groups. Goldin’s group was attacked, and two other soldiers, Benaya Sarel and Liel Gidoni, were killed.

Goldin was seized, and other soldiers who reached the scene tried to chase after the kidnappers, into the tunnel, but they were unable to thwart the kidnapping.
