The IDF says it killed three Palestinian terror operatives who crossed the Gaza ceasefire line and approached troops in the Strip’s north today.
According to the military, in two separate incidents, troops of the Gaza Division’s Northern Brigade and reservists of the Carmeli Brigade identified several terror operatives crossing the Yellow Line.
The operatives “posed an immediate threat” to the soldiers stationed in the area, the IDF says, adding that the troops opened fire and “eliminated three of the terrorists to remove the threat.”
Palestinian media reported that three people were killed in the Beit Lahiya area, and another person was killed in Jabalia by Israeli fire. The military says it is unaware of any drone strikes being carried out, contrary to Palestinian reports.
