(Jerusalem Post) Yaakov Katz - On Tuesday evening, the IDF spotted a terror cell in the midst of preparing to launch a rocket into Israel. The IDF attacked the cell, killing four known terrorists who sources said were behind the Grad-model Katyusha attack on Beersheba last month. Earlier, IDF troops came under mortar fire from a terror cell near the Gaza town of Sajaiyeh. The troops fired the mortars in response and accidentally hit four civilians.

On Tuesday morning, the IDF thwarted an attack after a tank crew spotted a group of terrorists preparing to fire an anti-tank missile. The tank opened fire and hit the Palestinian crew.
