Egypt and Israel investigate border ‘shooting incident’ in Rafah…
Egypt’s armed forces said they were investigating a shooting incident in the Rafah border area Monday that killed a member of its security forces — underscoring the risk of spillover from the Gaza war and putting further strain on Cairo’s relations with Israel.
The Israel Defense Forces confirmed a “shooting incident at the Egyptian border” and said it was also investigating. “A dialogue is underway with the Egyptians,” the IDF added in a statement. Neither Egypt nor Israel said who opened fire first.
