The four were transferred to the Israeli security for interrogations.
 
In a separate incident, soldiers claimed uncovering an explosive device, in the southern part of the Gaza Strip.
 
According to army sources, 19 explosives were located and safely detonated since the Israeli withdrawal from the Gaza Strip.
