An IDF special forces unit apprehended two wanted terrorists in Jenin on Sunday night and shot a third terrorist after he threw an explosive device on them, the IDF stated on Monday. Following the operation, which was a joint effort of the Border Police undercover unit and the Shin Bet, terrorists threw rocks and explosives at the soldiers as they were leaving the area. The soldiers responded with gunfire, wounding a terrorist who had hurled an explosive device. On Shabbos, three terrorists were arrested in the Jalazone refugee camp a few hours after they attempted to commit terror attacks in the nearby Jewish community of Beit El. המחבלים הועברו להמשך חקירת שב”כ. כוחות הביטחון ימשיכו לפעול לשמירה על הביטחון במרחב ויפעלו לסיכול ניסיונות פיגוע וללכידת מחבלים. צפו בתיעוד המעצר מקסדת לוחמי יחידת ״דובדבן״: pic.twitter.com/6st7mPRswd — צבא ההגנה לישראל (@idfonline) July 18, 2020 The terrorists had thrown an explosive device toward Beit El and attempted to commit a drive-by shooting hours before they were captured.
