Israeli troops foiled a terror attack along the Gaza border on March 27, discovering and then defusing a powerful bomb planted next to the security fence, the IDF announced.

The bomb was meant to attack soldiers patrolling near the security fence separating Israel from the Gaza Strip, according to an IDF statement, which also said the bomb was planted at the end of last week using the cover of heavy fog. — jta
