Two Israeli policemen were injured in an bomb explosion Sunday near the Netzarim settlement in Gaza.
One of them, a police bomb sapper, suffered moderate injuries. The other, an officer, sustained light injuries.
The incident occurred when the two men were searching an area where a blast had injured a Netzarim resident Saturday as he walked near the settlement’s hothouses.
Security forces combing the scene found a hole in the settlement’s perimeter fence, which the terrorists had apparently penetrated.
In a separate incident, a large explosion was heard near the settlement K far Darom in the Gaza Strip. No further details are known.
