Troops were dispatched to the scene and apprehended him, some two kilometers from the fence, "in an area far from communities and IDF bases," according to the army. He was then handed over to the Shin Bet security agency for questioning. The Egyptian Foreign Ministry claims the man has been "missing" since July and is "psychologically unstable."
