Following one shooting attack from Gaza on Tuesday morning, an attack on Wednesday morning 26 Nissan and multiple mortar shell attacks on Wednesday afternoon, the IDF has declared the Nachal Ohz area a ‘closed military zone’.

As such, all non-military personnel are no longer permitted into the area as intermittent mortar shell fire continues.

B’chasdei Hashem there have not been any fatalities or injuries in the attacks, which may signal the beginning of renewed warfare from Hamas-controlled Gaza.

Remain with YWN for real-time updates on the situation along the Gaza border.
