Egypt Uncovers Explosives Near Gaza Border
(Ynet News) Hanan Greenberg - Egyptian security forces recently uncovered 1.5 tons of TNT explosives near the border with Israel, two km south of the Kerem Shalom crossing. Security officials in Israel believe the explosives were earmarked for terrorists in Gaza. IDF sources said the discovery proves the high motivation to smuggle bomb-making materials through the Gaza-Egypt border. Meanwhile, Southern Command forces have been deployed to counter the threat of a tunnel being dug from Gaza to one of the nearby Israeli communities.
