Twelve IDF soldiers were injured in an operational traffic accident in the Gaza border area, the military said on Sunday.

Of the 12, two of them were moderately injured, and the other ten were lightly hurt.

The incident is under investigation; however, initial findings indicate that three Hummer jeeps collided. 

"We didn't see because of the dust clouds," soldiers involved told Walla.  

In September, a Hummer jeep overturned in northern Gaza, injuring ten soldiers, two of whom were evacuated to Hadassah-University Medical Center in Jerusalem's Ein Kerem by helicopter, and eight in ambulances.

Possibility of losing control of vehicle due to excessive speed is being investigated

"The possibility of losing control of the vehicle due to excessive speed is being investigated. Currently, there is no control or enforcement over what happens within Palestinian territory," a military source on the Gaza border said.

"Once enforcement begins and sanctions are imposed on the battalions, everyone will be more cautious. No one wants fatalities or injuries. The accident that occurred this morning ended by luck, with no fatalities," the source added.

This is a developing story.
