IDF Chief of Staff: Palestinians Not Doing Enough to Stop Terror

(Yediot Ahronot-Ynet) Hanan Greenberg - Israel will continue to conduct arrests in the West Bank and Gaza for the Purim holiday and has sealed off the territories because the Palestinians are not doing enough to prevent terror, Army Chief of Staff Moshe Yaalon said Wednesday. "There are active cells planning to carry out terror attacks and therefore we are continuing our efforts, including overnight arrests. In such arrests, where we arrest terrorists in their beds, we are preventing them from reaching a Tel Aviv nightclub or a mall in Afula," Yaalon said. Referring to the planned Israeli withdrawal from Gaza this summer, he said if Palestinians in Gaza do not "maintain calm," Israel would "operate behind the lines as we did in Lebanon."
