An IED (improvised explosive device) exploded near an IDF engineering vehicle on the northern Gaza border Friday morning.

The bomb was planted along the Gaza side of the security fence and apparently detonated as the army vehicle came within proximity.

The IDF soldiers were carrying out a “planned operation,” according to the sources. No further details were available.

Sources said the border fence was not breached, nor were there injuries or damage reported.
