Moshe Shuni from Sha'arei Tikva, probably barely believing it himself. Over the past 22 years, the IDF presence in Lebanon had become such a given that none of the soldiers ever envisioned that they'd be the ones to shut the door on one of the most divisive chapters of Israel's history. About 19 kilometers north of Metulla, the outpost had been targeted by the Hizbullah over the past week and suffered a number of casualties. The flash was amazing, it lit up the whole sky. Reihan and the rest of the IDF's 12 outposts were destroyed by IDF sappers as the troops pulled out, ensuring against any future use by Hizbullah guerrillas.
Nothing is left.
For three months it was my home. I know this sounds weird, but I'll miss it. Avihai Cohen, from Ma'aleh Levona. As the convoys set out from the other outposts, warplanes swooped down again and again, delivering death knells to the vacated IDF and SLA positions. We passed Ayshe and they blew it up.
