An initial IDF investigation has revealed that the terrorist was likely killed during an attempt to harm Israeli vehicles and after throwing a grenade at a military vehicle.

Residents from the area first reported that large rocks were placed on the road leading to Beit Haggai, a common terror tactic; an IDF patrol was brought in to comb the area. Several minutes later, a loud explosion was heard.

Searches conducted uncovered the body of a terrorist; in his hand was an improvised explosive device.

The body was taken for examination by the Red Crescent.
