The IDF arrested two wanted terrorists in an operation in the Ras El Ein neighborhood in Shechem Wednesday. The force raided a house where a Fatah fugitive named Ja'afer Ja'ara was holed up. Ja'ara was among the Fatah terrorist fugitives whom the IDF pardoned as part of a goodwill gesture to the PA.
He was arrested along with another Fatah terrorist, Sha'aban Abu Ja'aber.
Another young Arab was shot in the course of the operation and died of his wounds. The IDF has still not withdrawn its forces from the scene.
