Sayeret Givati (PALSAR 8234)

Israel / Hadarom / Ofaqim /
 military, infantry, Israel Defense Forces (IDF)

While in the past there were differences between the siyur units, due to the experiences of the past decades the IDF is now consolidating them into larger units with many different capabilities: battalion-sized units called Gadsar (contraction of Gdud siyur, "Reconnaissance battalion").

Each Gadsar is made up of three specialized Plugot (companies): Demolitions (Plugat Heil Handasa, or Palhan), Reconnaissance (Plugat Siyur, Palsar) and Anti-Tank / Heavy Weapons (Pluga Neged Tankim, or Palnat). The Gadsar attached to and recruited from the Gi'vati Brigade is formed from the existing Reconnaisance Battalion or Palsar 8234, but following current doctrine the intention is to create a full Sayeret (Commando Reconnaisance) Battalion capable with all components.
