"The motivation of terror organizations in Gaza is undiminished despite their lack of success," IDF sources told Ynet Friday. The sources said that "the [IDF's] system is working well, starting with the identification [of the enemy], through the forces' readiness and, of course, at the end phase – striving for contact and assault."

"Still, we need to keep our eyes open at all times here," they added.

Commenting on the latest incident Thursday night in which a terrorist was eliminated, the sources noted that events like this occur on a near daily basis.
