An Egyptian soldier was killed and another wounded in a clash with Israeli forces at the Rafah crossing, several local media reported on Monday.
The Israeli military said: “A few hours ago there was a shooting incident on the Egyptian border, the [incident] is under investigation, and dialogue is taking place with the Egyptian side.”
Egypt’s military confirmed one person was killed and said it is probing the shooting.
Daily News Egypt quoted unnamed sources as saying Egyptian soldiers were “affected” by the Rafah massacre on Sunday, in which an Israeli bombing led to the killing of 45 Palestinians at a displacement camp.
