Israel kills Hamas fighters who crossed from Lebanon, Palestinian group says

The Palestinian Hamas group said three of its fighters from Lebanon were killed on Saturday in an Israeli air strike after they detonated a section of the Israel-Lebanon border fence, crossed over and clashed with Israeli troops.

Israel's military said earlier its aircraft had struck a group of people who it believed had intended to launch anti-tank missiles towards Israel. (Writing by Rami Ayyub; Editing by Daniel Wallis)
