IDF shoots at four terrorists as it dismantles Rafah terror tunnels
This marks an additional instance of terrorists crossing over into IDF-controlled territory in Gaza.
On Wednesday, the IDF shot at four terrorists across the Yellow Line, as Israeli troops worked to dismantle terror tunnels in Rafah, in the southern Gaza Strip.
The IDF later stated that soldiers killed three out of the four terrorists.
The military assessed that the four Gazans were part of the approximately 200 terrorists who remain in the tunnels in Rafah.
Additionally, in a separate incident on Wednesday, IDF troops killed a terrorist in Khan Yunis who was seen crossing the Yellow Line and approaching the soldiers.
