The breach occurred near the Jewish community of Holit, according to a statement by the IDF Spokesperson.

Danon showed the Council a map, explaining, “This is Iran’s central induction and recruitment center in Syria.”

"Hamas places young children, teenagers and women, at the forefront of the riots to serve as human shields for the Hamas agenda."

Eshkol Regional Council officials told residents to maintain their normal routines but encouraged people to “keep their eyes open” for unusual incidents in the region.

“Turns out the 'photographer' killed in Gaza was an officer in Hamas, a terrorist org that seeks Israel‘s destruction. On Hamas’ payroll since 2011."

“The repeated instances in which international organizations are hijacked by Hamas highlights the urgent need for greater oversight by both NGOs and their donor governments."

While Abbas' adviser was criticizing Hamas for sending Gazans to their death, Abbas' Fatah Movement celebrated the participation of an infant in the Gaza demonstrations.

When the three terrorists planted their explosives they quickly retraced their steps and ducked back through the fence into Gaza although their actions weren't clear at the time.

The deaths occurred during two rounds of major riots and numerous continued smaller-scale “demonstrations” led by Hamas at the Gaza border.

“This subversive and impermanent organization, together with those who hate Israel ... are trying to delegitimize our soldiers who are acting in a legal and moral manner, and who are in a complicated situation."

Greenblatt: "We condemn leaders and protesters who call for violence or who send protesters - including children - to the fence, knowing that they may be injured or killed."

IDF soldiers were faced with several tasks at once, but paramount among those was the need to protect the Israeli civilians living nearby.

“The challenges on the Gaza border are varied and complex. The people of Israel have someone upon whom to rely."

Netanyahu: The "sole purpose [of the Hamas-driven riots at the Gaza border] is to provide cover for terrorists to carry out terror attacks against Israel."

U.S. Senator Bernie Sanders: "I think it's a difficult situation, but my assessment is that Israel overreacted on that."

“The discovery of firebombs is more proof [the Hamas-driven riots] on Friday were a cover for terrorist acts."

Dozens of Arabs were rioting at the time at the security fence along the border with northern Gaza. Renewed rioting has broken out sporadically a number of times since the massive swarm that took place on Friday.

“Israel will not rest, and the residents of Gaza will know no peace until the Israelis are returned from Gaza and our fallen soldiers are brought to rest in Israel.”

Prime Minister Netanyahu blasted Erdogan, saying, “The most moral army in the world will not be preached to by someone who for years has indiscriminately bombed civilian populations."

"Anyone who mistakenly views in this murderous spectacle even an iota of freedom of expression is blind to the threats the State of Israel faces."

The IDF is just 48 hours away from facing the potential challenge of thousands of Gaza residents who plan to storm the security fence.

This year Hamas in Gaza and the Palestinian Authority in Judea and Samaria hope to organize tens of thousands of citizens to storm all crossings and border fences.

The explosive was planted close to the fence and baited with a Palestinian Authority flag during riots two weeks ago, the IDF said.

The Red Alert incoming rocket warning system did not activate although it's not clear why.

The violence broke out in two locations near Gaza and in one location in Samaria. IDF soldiers aimed at main instigators after first firing warning shots.

An IDF vehicle was damaged by the gunfire, but none of the Israeli soldiers were physically injured.

After an extensive search, it was determined that one rocket landed on the Gaza side of the security fence.

The new security fence will separate the old Route 60 connecting Ramallah with Jelazoun, from Beit El’s western neighborhoods.

The Arab managed to place a ladder on the town's security fence.

The identity of the infiltrator has not been released and his motive is not yet known.
