JERUSALEM, Feb. 19 (UPI) -- Israeli troops near a Gaza border crossing reported they wounded a Palestinian man as he allegedly tried to plant a bomb along the border fence Thursday.
The suspect was treated at a hospital for his injuries then taken into custody for questioning, Ynetnews.com reported.
Palestinian sources in Gaza also reported hearing gunfire in the northeastern part of the strip where Israeli troops were operating, Ynetnews.com said.
Also Thursday, two suspected rocket firings from Gaza toward the Negev region led to a "color red" alert, officials said, adding that where the rockets landed hasn't been determined.
Earlier, a Qassam rocket landed on the Palestinian side of the Gaza-Israel border fence, and a mortar shell fired from Gaza hit in the Sdot Negev Regional Council limits. No injuries were reported in in either attack, officials said.
