Israel Changes Tactics to Prevent Terror Infiltrations from Gaza
[Ha'aretz] Amos Harel and Avi Issacharoff - In the past two weeks, IDF units have crossed into Gaza several times to strike at terrorists and foil potential attacks. On Wednesday, Israel Defense Forces soldiers killed four Hamas gunmen approaching the security fence. The militants were trying to lay an explosive device near the fence, the army said. Defense sources said the army is now authorized to act against clear threats within a "security perimeter" - a several-hundred-meter strip beyond the border fence.
