The IDF claims that the PA is resorting to outright lies in its campaign against Israel. In response to two PLO mortar shells fired at Netzarim in Gaza this morning, the PA claimed that Israeli forces entered PA-controlled territory afterwards and destroyed Palestinian positions. The IDF spokesman said that this was totally unfounded, and that \"this is just another one in a long series of PA lies, in its attempt to incite and escalate the hostilities.\"
