IDF fires on Gaza snipers near border
The IDF says that Israeli security forces identified terrorists in the Gaza Strip preparing to snipe at Israeli forces carrying out defensive activities near the southern Gaza Strip. The IDF said the soldiers fired at the snipers and hits were confirmed.
There were no immediate reports of casualties on the Gaza side.
Last week Israeli forces conducting repair work on the border came under fire from Gaza snipers, and earlier this month an IDF vehicle was fired upon by snipers as well.
