The Almagor Terror Victims Association congratulated the nation's security forces Tuesday on their re-arrest of five dangerous Fatah terrorists – but asked why they were ever released in the first place.
The IDF announced Tuesday afternoon that during July and August, it arrested five terrorists known as the Tanzim – members of Fatah's militant wing – from the village of Silwad near Ramallah. The arrests were carried out in conjunction with the Israel Security Agency (Shin Bet).
The terrorists are responsible for having carried out a number of terrorist attacks in and around Highway 60, the main north-south route in Judea and Samaria, according to the IDF Spokesman. On July 9, around 6:00 in the morning, two of the arrested men attempted to murder the passengers of an Israeli vehicle traveling near Silwad. They fired shots at the car, but no one was hurt.
