JERUSALEM (JTA) -- Israel Air Force aircraft fired on a car in southern Gaza that the military said was carrying two Palestinian terror operatives.
The men, both 33 and born in Rafah, were affiliated with the Defenders of al-Aqsa terror organization, a terrorist group sponsored by Hamas in the Gaza Strip, according to a statement from the Israel Defense Forces.
The operation was carried out jointly by the IDF and the Shin Bet security services.
One of the operatives, Anis Abu Mahmoud el-Anin, 33, was in the final stages of preparing to carry out a terror attack against Israeli civilians, according to the IDF. The other man killed was Ashraf Mahmoud Salah, who was also affiliated with the Popular Resistance Committees, and who was involved in the planning of a suicide attack in Israel, according to the IDF.
"The IDF will not tolerate any attempt by terrorist groups to harm Israeli civilians and IDF soldiers, and will continue to operate with strength and determination against those who use terror against the State of Israel," the statement said.
The Palestinian Ma'an news service reported that the men were members of the security forces of the Hamas government, and that they had been sent to the area to secure the border with Egypt.
You're in a car in Gaza and you see the above F-16 coming at you to kill you because you dare to resist Israeli occupation and oppression. Who is the terrorist here? Why does the world allow this to continue on without massive protests against Israel's crime against humanity, the 64 years of ethnic cleansing by Israeli Jewish racists with America's blessing in money and arms, like the F-16 pictured above..
