Share on:

The Shin Bet, Israel's internal security service, announced the dismantling of a 'terrorist' network belonging to the Palestinian Islamist organization Hamas in Hebron, in the occupied West Bank. The operation was carried out jointly with the army and police.

According to Shin Bet, this is 'the largest network uncovered in 10 years.' The operation resulted in the arrest of 60 suspects over the past three months and the seizure of 22 weapons. It also solved a case of an armed attack committed 15 years ago, in which four Israelis were killed.

The network consisted of ten different cells and had an 'underground hideout' for storing equipment and hosting fugitives.
