Sayeret Matkal (
General Personnel Reconnaissance
System) is a special forces system of the Israel
Protection Forces (IDF). Initially a field intelligence-gathering system, performing deep reconnaissance behind firing line to get strategic intelligence, Sayeret Matkal is likewise entrusted with counter-terrorism and also captive rescue past Israel's boundaries.
The unit is imitated the
British Army's
Special Air Service, taking the system's motto "That Risks
Wins". [1] It is directly subservient to the IDF's Directorate of
Military Knowledge.
In 1954 Israel's very first unique operations unit-- Unit 101-- was disbanded complying with the uproar produced by the
Qibya carnage. This left the IDF without a specialized special-forces device aside from the
Navy's
Shayetet 13, a naval task force system which could possibly not totally replace Unit
101. In
1957 Avraham Arnan (he) (né Herling), a former yeshiva pupil and Palmach boxer, requested the IDF General Personnel to produce an unit that could be sent off to enemy-held region to execute top secret intelligence-gathering objectives. Arnan's idea (backed by
David Ben-Gurion and also
Yitzhak Rabin) was to create a device that would certainly recruit only the very best and the brightest of
Israeli young people. Potential boxers were to be hand-picked, being physically as well as intellectually the very best soldiers offered. Initially part of
Aman's Unit 157, Sayeret Matkal started to operate individually a year later as the
General Staff's special procedures force, [2] imitated the
British Unique Air Service. Participants of the device were trained by Bedouin trackers in order to acquire a better understanding of their foes. [3] Established a year after the formation of Israel's initial helicopter squadron, the close co-operation in between the two systems allowed Sayeret Matkal to deploy longer as well as much deeper inside
Arab region than its precursor. Arnan's vision for Sayeret Matkal (which he was the first commander) was of a device that would certainly perform strategic intelligence-gathering and also other operations; thus it would certainly obtain its goals just from the General Staff. Sayeret Matkal would certainly likewise assess new weapons and also teachings that could possibly affect the whole IDF.
Because of the extensive training, preparing as well as planning that had to be carried out before its missions, Sayeret Matkal ended up not seeing any sort of action during the Six-Day
Battle. It was nevertheless engaged thoroughly in the following Battle of
Attrition. After 1967, with the increase of
Palestinian political violence carried out by groups such as the
Palestine Freedom Organization (
PLO), Sayeret Matkal began establishing the initial hostage-rescue and counter-terrorism techniques worldwide. Starting with
Operation Isotope, the system executed several prominent operations that propelled it right into the spotlight as an "world-class paratroopers" device (Sayeret Matkal's existence was categorized at the time). In
1972, before the
Munich massacre, Sayeret Matkal's operatives were sent to
West Germany to accept
German authorities and, if needed, execute the hostage-rescue themselves. Their insight though, was not heeded
. In the succeeding
Operation Wrath of God, Sayeret Matkal struck the PLO in
Beirut.
