Around 1am Saturday morning, information was received from the Shabak regarding a terrorist cell, which at the time was traveling by car from Jenin to Tulkarem. The cell intended to carry out a large terror attack, possibly similar to the massacre in Itamar in 2011.
At 1:30am, Yamam elite forces located the cell and while they attempted to carry out the arrests, the terrorists opened fire. The Yamam forces responded back killing the three terrorists.
Unfortunately 4 Yamam fighters were injured and 1 is in a serious condition but stable, he is anaesthetised and on a respirator. He is said to be one of the best in the field. Please pray for his recovery!
Several hours later, in a joint IDF and Shabak operation in the community of Shuweika, near Tulkarem, troops from the IDF's Duvdevan Unit and Shabak apprehended the last terrorist suspected of being a member of the cell.
