Israel Eliminates Palestinian Terror Cell in Drone Strike


(Jerusalem Post-Times of Israel) Yonah Jeremy Bob - The IDF on Wednesday used an armed drone to kill three members of a Palestinian terror squad who had just opened fire at the Jalameh checkpoint, north of Jenin, and were responsible for numerous shooting attacks on Israeli communities in Samaria and in northern Israel. "IDF soldiers identified a terrorist cell inside a suspicious vehicle, after the cell carried out a shooting adjacent to the town of Jalamah," the Israeli military said. "Following the identification of the terrorist cell, an IDF UAV fired toward the cell and thwarted them." The terrorists were from Islamic Jihad and Fatah's Al-Aqsa Martyrs' Brigades.

The Israel Security Agency has recorded 147 "significant" terror attacks in Israel and the West Bank this year, including 120 shootings.
