Soldiers search for possible infiltrators in Zikim
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleA large numbers of security forces are mobilized to Kibbutz Zikim.
Less than an hour ago, unidentified figures were seen moving in the darkness of the fields near the kibbutz.
Roads leading to the kibbutz are closed as security forces sweep the area.
Zikim residents have been ordered to lock themselves indoors until the army concludes there are no terrorists seeking to infiltrate the communal village.
The incident marks the second suspected infiltration today. Earlier this evening, two villages in the Ramat Hanegev area were sealed for an hour out of fear that infiltrators had reached the area. The army lifted the closure after concluding that it was a false alarm.
