The 162nd Division "Ha-Plada", also known as the Steel Formation (Hebrew: עֻצְבַּת הַפְּלָדָה, Utzbat HaPlada), is a division in the Israel Defense Forces. It is subordinate to Southern Command. The 162nd division has been involved in the Yom Kippur War, the two Lebanon wars, and the Gaza war. During the lattermost war, it was determined to have killed Hind Rajab, a 5-year old Palestinian girl.
