No Israeli injuries were reported.
The site is located near the city of Ofakim, one of the communities which was overrun by Hamas-led terrorists during the October 7, 2023 invasion from Gaza. At least 50 people died in the attack on Ofakim, including many police officers.
Ofakim is located a few minutes northwest of Be’er Sheva.
