The IDF says it has returned the bodies of two Jordanian terrorists who infiltrated Israel in October back to Jordan overnight.
The gunmen, members of the Muslim Brotherhood in Jordan, breached the border in an area south of the Dead Sea, close to the border community of Neot HaKikar. They then opened fire at IDF troops, wounding two, before being shot dead, having managed to cross no more than a few meters into Israeli territory.
Their bodies were returned too Jordan “in accordance with the directive of the political echelon,” the military adds.
