IDF troops operating in the area of the Gaza border fence on Wednesday morning identified several suspects who approached the border from the Gaza Strip and moved toward Israel in an attempt to cross the security area in the area of Rafah. The troops engaged the terrorists who opened fire at them. The troops then returned fire at the terrorists. An Israeli Air Force aircraft that monitored the terrorist cell struck the terrorists and eliminated two of them. Another terrorist was eliminated by means of tank fire shortly afterward, according to the IDF. The terrorists did not cross the fence built along the Gaza Strip. The incident is under review, according to the iDF.
