Israeli media report “security incident” on the border with the Gaza Strip

Israeli Army Radio announced on Thursday morning that there had been a “serious security incident” on the border with the Gaza Strip.

The radio station’s military correspondent confirmed reports that armed men had managed to break through the Karem Abu Salem border crossing in the Rafah region south of the Gaza Strip and advance towards the occupied Palestinian territories surrounding the Gaza Strip.

In addition, he stated that the IOF units operating nearby confronted the resistance fighters, which led to a gun battle. Two Israeli drones and tanks were then used to pursue them. In this regard, the Israeli army spokesman stressed that the “possibility of one of the group members returning to Gaza is being examined.”

Israeli media did not provide any further details about the incident, stressing that any publications about the incident were strictly censored.
