IDF troops arrest 3 unarmed Palestinians who crossed border from Gaza

Israeli troops arrest three unarmed Palestinians who breached the security fence and entered southern Israel from the Gaza Strip, the army says.

The suspects are arrested near the Israeli community of Kissufim, east of the southern Gaza Strip.

“IDF soldiers who were called to the area set up a perimeter, searched the area and arrested the suspects,” the army says.

They were not in possession of weapons. They have been handed over to the Shin Bet security service for questioning.
