IDF kills two Palestinians approaching Gaza fence

[oberliner]

Israel Defense Forces troops late Sunday killed two Palestinian militants approaching the Gaza Strip security fence carrying explosives.

Givati Brigade forces opened fire on two figures crawling toward the fence south of Moshav Nativ Ha'asarah. A large explosion sounded, apparently from the explosives the Palestinians were wielding, and the militants were killed.

It is not clear if they had planned to cross the fence into Israeli territory or place the explosives next to the fence in order to target an IDF patrol.

IDF infantry corps on Friday discovered a bomb weighing 23 kilograms in the West Bank town of Hirbat al-Najr, south of Jenin, The battalion that found the explosives had earlier that week found an even larger bomb weighing 60 kilograms in a town west of the city.
