The IDF is currently still scanning the area for the individuals who touched the fence, though current estimates say the the two were likely picked up in a vehicle since, Kan reported.

The IDF said initial findings indicate that the two did not cross the border for terror-related reasons, and that residents in the area can return to their normal routines.
