Israeli Special Forces Bust Imminent Terror Cell in Menashe Area

This morning (Saturday), Yamam fighters and Shin Bet, together with IDF forces from the Menashe Brigade, acted on precise intelligence guidance from the General Security Service to arrest a wanted cell suspected of preparing to execute an attack in the immediate timeframe. Upon receiving the directive, Yamam fighters and Shin Bet’s operational unit raided a business in the village of Barta’a, located within Israeli territory, where the terrorists were staying, and arrested both suspects. Shortly afterward, Duvdevan Unit fighters and IDF forces from the Menashe Brigade operated in another village in the brigade’s area to arrest an additional terrorist in the cell. The fighters arrived in armored vehicles, raided the terrorist’s home, and arrested him. There were no casualties among IDF forces.
