Palestinian sources say Grads seized after firefight

Amid reports that Egypt security forces this morning thwarted an attempt to smuggle 20 rockets from the Gaza Strip into the Sinai region, the Palestinian Ma’an news agency says the munitions were seized after a firefight between terrorists in the town of Rafah and Egyptian security forces.

At the end of the shootout, the Egyptian authorities seized the projectiles, Ma’an reports.

The projectiles were apparently meant to be used in attacks against Israel from the peninsula.
