The Israeli soldiers attempted to distance him by firing at him, confirming a hit. Following a search, conducted on morning, Sunday, April 1, 2012, the body was found with an AK-47 rifle.

It should be noted that during the past week, IDF soldiers uncovered three explosive devices adjacent to the security fence in the Gaza Strip. All three devices were diffused in a controlled manner.

Incidents such as these are proof of how terror organizations use the area adjacent to the security fence in the Gaza Strip to plant explosive devices and execute terror attacks and kidnapping attempts against IDF soldiers, thereby endangering the citizens of Israel and the security forces operating in the area.
