IDF Foils Terror Attacks

(Jerusalem Post) Margot Dudkevitch- IDF soldiers arrested four Hamas and Fatah Tanzim members near Tulkarm on Saturday. Behind a television unit in the living room, security forces uncovered 19 pipe bombs, gunpowder, IDF uniforms, and eight ammunition clips. The four planned shooting and bomb attacks on Israeli settlements as well as inside Israel. On Friday in Salfit near Ariel, security forces shot and killed Hamas fugitive Muhammad Balasneh, 29, and arrested Ibrahim Darnaji, 38, a high-ranking Fatah Tanzim fugitive. Darnaji, a member of the Palestinian General Intelligence, was responsible for numerous shooting attacks on the Trans-Samaria Highway and initiated many of the attacks carried out by Tanzim in the area. Balasneh was involved in bomb attacks in Barkan and on the Trans-Samaria Highway. On Friday, near Ramallah, a special IDF unit arrested Samah Barghouti, suspected of murdering Israeli truck driver Moshe Yohai in June. Also on Friday, soldiers in south Gaza spotted a group of Palestinians attempting to launch an anti-tank rocket. Soldiers opened fire and the rocket exploded, killing a Palestinian.
