In an unusual security incident, two Hamas terrorists were spotted on Wednesday near the Kerem Shalom Crossing on the Gaza side of the border, Kan News reported.

One of the terrorists was arrested by security forces and is currently being questioned.

The second terrorist managed to escape, and a manhunt is underway to locate him. IDF forces were dispatched to the scene, along with the Shin Bet’s “Tequila” team.

The IDF announced on Wednesday morning that it struck and destroyed four primed rocket-launchers overnight at several locations throughout the Gaza Strip.

According to the IDF, the launch sites had been established by terrorist organizations in Gaza in recent weeks after the ceasefire took effect and were prepared for attacks against IDF forces and Israeli civilians.
