After the IDF engaged the terrorists with gunfire, an Air Force aircraft dispatched two of them with a well placed bomb.
The third terrorist was reportedly killed by tank fire shortly afterward.

Here’s more from OSI:
The IDF spokesperson reported this morning an attempted infiltration by terrorists into Israel near Rafah, who were subsequently neutralized:
An IDF unit conducting patrols in the border area identified several suspects approaching the border from the Gaza Strip and moving towards Israeli territory in an attempt to cross the barrier near Rafah.
The unit encountered the terrorists, who opened fire, and responded with gunfire.
An Air Force aircraft was dispatched to monitor the group and attacked the terrorists, killing two of them. Another terrorist was killed shortly after by tank fire.
It should be emphasized that the terrorists did not cross the ‘Sand Clock’ barrier along the Gaza Strip. The incident is under investigation.
