In an overnight operation by the Duvdevan undercover unit in the Balata refugee camp in Nablus, Israeli forces arrested six terrorists who were planning an attack in the Samaria region, the IDF said. The unit's commander said the fighters operated with precision and determination, thwarting the cell's plans.
The overnight raid by the Duvdevan undercover unit in Balata refugee camp, Nablus, resulted in the arrest of six terrorists who were actively planning an attack in the Samaria area, according to an IDF statement. A Duvdevan deputy commander, identified only by his rank and initial, stated that the forces employed special capabilities to achieve the arrests. The operation is one in a series of ongoing counterterror sweeps across Judea and Samaria. Earlier this month, Duvdevan arrested five wanted suspects in Kabatiya, and in late July, the unit conducted a hospital raid in Nablus to arrest two terrorists involved in a deadly shooting attack near Havat Gilad. Those operations underscore the persistent threat from terror cells in Nablus and the surrounding region. Details on the identity of the six arrested terrorists and the specific attack they planned have not yet been released.
