Israel has declared the area along its 130-mile border with Egypt a closed military zone to combat smuggling, Defense Minister Israel Katz’s office said on Thursday.
Katz’s order is designed to “turn the border-adjacent area into a closed military zone and change the rules of engagement to strike drone operators and smugglers by targeting any unauthorized element penetrating the off-limits area,” his office said.
