In many cases, Palestinian Authority and Gaza Arabs bring along knives or other weapons in their attempts to be arrested, hoping to receive a longer prison term in Israel.

Hamas also launched boats in an effort to break through Israel’s maritime blockade, but they were stopped by the IDF.

“We are very close to a different kind of activity, an activity that will include very powerful blows. If it has sense, Hamas will ... stop these violent disturbances – now.”

Since October 2017, 15 tunnels in the Gaza Strip have been neutralized.

Some attackers managed to breach the border and set fire to an IDF military post while others hurled explosives, burning tires, hand grenades, Molotov cocktails and rocks at Israeli soldiers.

At least 10 armed terrorists managed to infiltrate through the security fence, but were "greeted" by IDF soldiers when they emerged on to Israeli territory.

IDF soldiers arrested the suspects when they reached the Israeli side of the border.

Two infiltrators were arrested in southern Gaza; both were handed over to security personnel for interrogation.

IDF soldiers responded with standard riot control measures.

The engineers were working on the security barrier at the time of the attack.

The air strike took place near the security fence along the border with eastern Gaza.

Gazans breached the fence, hurled firebombs and an explosive device in the border fence area and then returned into the Gaza Strip.

A Gaza terrorist threw a live grenade at the officer while trying to cross the security fence into Israeli territory, the IDF said.

An armed terrorist was also captured while infiltrating through the border fence. He was turned over for interrogation.

This is not the first time confirmed terrorists have been found among those killed while carrying out terrorist activities during violence at the border.

“Something needs to be done about the fire kites. This time they landed in a field but next time it could easily land in a school, and then the tragedy would be greater.”

Terrorists with bolt cutters were working away at the fence, while others were engaged in setting fire to what appeared to be a conveyor through which fuel deliveries to Gaza are made.

Hamas dismantled the posts in order to remove obstacles, thus making it easier to intensify violence during the riots for Nakba Day, the IDF says.

“The IDF will not allow harm to the security of Israel's citizens and its defense infrastructure, and will fulfill the duty of protecting Israeli citizens."

The soldiers opened fire after they identified the team of terrorists damaging the fence and crossing into Israeli territory from southern Gaza.

One wonders exactly which open fields the infiltrators ran to, and whether any of them managed to reach the farmland of the nearby Jewish communities.

The rioters set fire to the natural gas and oil pipeline that supplies Gaza – thus destroying the very infrastructure that provides their territory with energy for their needs.

Banna joined Hamas last year, following in the footsteps of his uncle. He wanted to be shot by Israel so he could earn a $500 payment and monthly stipend from Hamas.
