Jerusalem, 23 February, 2020 (TPS) -- IDF troops on Sunday morning identified two terrorists in the Gaza Strip who were planting an explosive device next to the security fence with Israel.

The soldiers opened fire at the terrorists, and “a hit was identified,” the IDF stated.

The two terrorists were probably killed. No Israeli troops were injured in the incident.

This is the latest in almost daily terrorism-related incidents on the border with Gaza.

On Wednesday, Islamic Jihad snipers fired from Gaza at IDF troops inside Israel.

An Israeli Special Forces unit responded by targeting the sniper squad responsible for the attack.
