Terrorist Missile Explodes IDF Jeep Along Gaza Border


MOTZEI SHABBOS – 19:00 IL: An anti-tank missile fired by terrorists in Gaza at an IDF patrol jeep near Nachal Ohz made a direct hit, with the vehicle bursting into flames. IDF soldiers returned fire. The incident occurred on Saturday afternoon near the end of shabbos.

IDF artillery fire was directed into Gaza along with combat helicopter machinegun fire. Unconfirmed sources in Gaza report at least 3 dead and numerous wounded from the IDF return gunfire.

Residents of all communities within 7 kilometers (4.2 miles) of the Gaza border have been ordered to remain in their sealed rooms and shelters as military officials expect the situation in the area will escalate.

IDF Chief of Staff Lt.-Gen. Benny Gantz is meeting with members of the General Staff later tonight, at 21:00 to assess the situation and decide how to retaliate.
