Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Egypt’s President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi held a phone call on Tuesday, following the deadly border incident, and agreed to work together in a “joint investigation.” The Egyptian leader expressed his condolences for the death of the three soldiers killed by an Egyptian border policeman.
The first two IDF soldiers were killed early morning June 3, at a guard post close to the Harif military base, identified as Lia Ben Nun (19) and Ori Izhak Ilouz (20). Ohad Dahan, also 20, was killed during the manhunt for the terrorist.
A delegation of senior Egyptian security officials made a trip to Tel Aviv, too. According to the London-based newspaper Al-Araby Al-Jadid, the visit was aimed at defusing tensions between the two countries and was reported to also be part of mediation efforts between Israel and Palestinian terror groups.
However, on Saturday, a member of the Jordanian parliament honored the Egyptian terrorist at an Arab League meeting in Cairo. He stood up and read a prayer in memory of the jihadi “martyr.”
