Golan Heights



 After shelling this Syrian bunker ( built by the Russians ) for twenty four hours
the Israeli soldiers of the Golani unit came up to this bunker in an unarmored  Egged bus.
The Syrians opened fire from this opening with big machine guns and killed 62 soldiers in less then three minutes.
As it turns out, the bunker was so thick that no soldiers where killed.
It took the air-force to shoot right into this opening to capture the mountain.
When the soldiers finally came to the bunker, they found that every one had retreated besides for the Syrians that were handcuffed to their guns. They were out of bullets and just sitting there.....
