At one point, the driver of the Palestinian armored vehicle emerged.
“He went toward the forces that had been wounded, and he was shot dead,” the officer said.
Thirteen Israeli soldiers were wounded in the attack.
The officer said three Hamas militants were killed — two in the jeep explosions and one in the shooting, confirming Hamas’ account that three of its members had been killed in the attack. The Israeli military had previously said four Hamas militants were killed.
