Gaza terrorists continue to fire mortar rounds at southern Israel for a third day in a row
While the IDF finds more of Hamas’ terror tunnels.
For the third day in a row, Gaza terrorists continued to shell southern Israel on Thursday afternoon.
The tenth mortar attack in two days was fired at southern Israel at about 4:45 pm, again targeting the IDF soldiers as they operating along the security fence in southern Gaza.
No injuries were reported, and an IDF tank fired back in the direction of the mortar fire.
The ninth and tenth attacks came after the IDF announced the discovery of a second cross-border attack tunnel penetrating into Israel territory from Gaza.
“Moments ago mortar rounds were fired at forces during operational activity adjacent to the security fence in the southern Gaza Strip,” said the IDF Spokesperson in a statement.
“No injuries have been reported. An IDF tank responded and fired towards the threat.”
A Hamas terrorist involved in the terror organization’s tunnel network was also arrested in a combined IDF and Shin Bet (Israel Security Agency) operation, according to a brief statement late Thursday afternoon by the intelligence agency.
