IDF: Bus hit by anti-tank missile was near Gaza border against protocol
A preliminary IDF investigation finds that the bus that was struck by an anti-tank missile fired from the Gaza Strip should not have been so close to the border.
According to reports, the soldiers asked the driver to take them inside the Black Arrow memorial site in Kibbutz Kfar Aza, against army regulations.
The bus was parked at the site in full view of the Gaza border, and dozens of soldiers had just disembarked when the anti-tank guided missile struck the vehicle.
The strike on the bus left a 19-year-old soldier in critical condition. The bus driver was also injured in the attack.
