An armored unit of the IDF killed a suspected terrorist on the Gaza border Tuesday night. Troops carrying out routine activities detected a man crawling towards the border fence in the northern Gaza Strip and fired a shell at him.

The army reported an accurate hit.

There have been several incidents along the Gaza border since a ceasefire was announced between Israel and terrorist groups in the Strip last month.

On Saturday, the IDF killed a terrorist during an attempt to cross the border, and last week a cluster of explosives found near the fence were detonated in a controlled explosion.
