The IDF said on Thursday it shot down a drone smuggling weapons from Egyptian territory to Israel on Wednesday.
Tunnel Network
Israeli officials have said during the war in Gaza that the terrorist group Hamas used tunnels running under the border into Egypt's Sinai region to smuggle arms.
Egypt says it destroyed tunnel networks leading to Gaza years ago and created a buffer zone and border fortifications that prevent smuggling.
Earlier in October, the IDF also said it foiled a weapon smuggling attempt from Egypt after downing a drone carrying guns and bullets.
