IDF to investigate Gaza missile attack that injured solider

The head of IDF Ground Forces Maj. Gen. Kobi Barak orders an investigation into yesterday’s anti-tank guided missile attack that targeted a bus near the Gaza border, seriously injuring a soldier.

The bus was parked unprotected in the Black Arrow memorial site in Kibbutz Kfar Aza, a few hundreds meters from the Gaza fence.

Dozens of soldiers had been on the bus moments before the anti-tank guided missile struck the vehicle, but they exited before it hit.

The investigation into the troops’ actions will be led by Brig. Gen. Amir Ebstein, commander of the IDF’s Border Defense Array.
