Capture of Escaped Prisoners Shows Israeli Intelligence Prowess
(Jerusalem Post) Khaled Abu Toameh - The recapture of the last two Palestinian prisoners who escaped from Gilboa Prison shows that Israel has very good intelligence sources in the West Bank, residents of Jenin said Sunday. The Islamic Jihad members surrendered to the IDF after the house where they were hiding was surrounded by dozens of soldiers. Over the past few days, gunmen belonging to Fatah and Islamic Jihad warned that Israel would "pay a heavy price" if the IDF entered Jenin to recapture the prisoners. But most of the gunmen were nowhere to be seen when Israeli security forces entered Jenin.
