(Israel Defense Forces) On Thursday, the Israeli Air Force targeted and identified hitting a squad of terror operatives who were preparing to carry out a terror attack in the area of the Karni humanitarian aid crossing in northern Gaza. Global Jihad operative Fares Ahmed Jaber was killed in the attack. Jaber, 26, from Gaza City, was involved in firing rockets at Israeli communities in the past few months. Earlier Thursday, Gazan terrorists fired an RPG missile at IDF forces patrolling the Israeli side of the security fence opposite central Gaza. The IDF will continue to operate firmly against anyone who uses terror against the State of Israel. The Hamas terror organization is solely responsible for maintaining peace and quiet in Gaza.
