Israeli troops killed three Palestinians, whom the IDF identifies as terror operatives, after they crossed the Gaza ceasefire line in the Strip’s north yesterday.

According to the IDF, in one incident, four terror operatives crossed the Yellow Line and approached reservists of the 205th “Iron Fist” Reserve Armored Brigade, “in a manner that posed an immediate threat.”

Separately, another operative crossed the Yellow Line and approached forces of the Gaza Division’s Northern Brigade, the military says.

Following their identification, the military says the ground troops “eliminated three of the terrorists in order to remove the threat.”
