Israeli Media (Yesha News):
IDF Engineering vehicle D-9 near the hour 6:00PM went over an explosive device on the Egyptian-Israel Border activated by Arab terrorists ("philadelphia route")
From the explosion 3 soldiers were injured lightly.
An IDF APC rescue force that arrived to evacuate the injured went over another power device (one media report says 80kg). From the explosion 5 soldiers were injured very badly and are now fighting for their lives.
So there are 5 fighting for their lives, and 5 other ones with light and medium injuries.

Haaretz reports
10 Palestinian Authority terrorist regime Arabs injured in the blast
Also reports IAF helicopters and planes flying over the area.
The Philadelphia Route (where this happened in Gaza) is a place that splits Rafah between Egypt and Israel.
