According to the news agency ynet, the attack occurred on the border with Egypt, in the area where work is underway to build a security fence. A group of terrorists taking advantage of a group of African refugees as a cover opened fire on the soldiers guarding the Israeli-Egyptian border. According to reports, refugees, numbering about 15 people, approached the fence.

Almost immediately, the fighters of the battalion arrived at the scene, the overwhelming majority in which were women. The soldiers opened machine gun fire on the remaining militants, and, in the course of the attack, killed both of them.
