The IDF soldiers wounded yesterday in the southern Gaza Strip were hit by explosive devices and light arms fire, and not RPG fire, according to an updated military probe of the incident.
One soldier was seriously wounded, one was listed in moderate condition, and another two were lightly hurt.
The incident took place in the Philadelphi Corridor area, next to the Tel Sultan neighborhood of Rafah.
The IDF says the troops, some of whom were carrying out a logistics supply mission, returned fire.
