News Brief

(IsraelNN.com) The IDF continues to search for terrorists in Shechem, where the Palestinian Authority (PA) has deployed its own forces in an effort to prove it can stop terrorism. Army soldiers arrested one armed terrorist in the city Wednesday night. The PA has complained that the IDF presence there interferes with its ability to show the local population that it is in control.

The IDF also arrested nine wanted terrorists in Kalkilya, adjacent to Kfar Saba, two in Ramallah, located north of Jerusalem and next to the Jewish town of Beit El, and one in Jenin, in central Samaria.
