Israeli security forces arrested a wanted militant in the village of Silat al-Harithiya in the Jenin district on Wednesday morning, according to a joint statement from the IDF and police. The suspect, wanted for involvement in terrorist activity, surrendered without resistance after being called on by undercover Border Police officers. He was transferred to the Shin Bet for questioning.
The arrest was carried out by undercover Border Police (Magav) officers from the Judea and Samaria district, operating under the direction of the Shin Bet and with the IDF's Menashe Brigade. The forces approached the suspect's hideout discreetly, then called on him to surrender. The suspect complied without incident. No Israeli forces were injured. The operation is part of ongoing counter-terrorism efforts in the Jenin area, which The Zioneer has previously covered in the context of routine arrest raids across Judea and Samaria.
