It has been cleared for publication that in recent weeks, 24-year-old Ahmed Mahmoud Abu Salah, a resident of the PA town of Ayush, was taken in for questioning by the Shin Bet after returning from a long period of academic studies in Turkey.
During Ahmed's investigation, it emerged that during his stay in Turkey, he was recruited into the Hamas terrorist organization, with the assistance of a Hamas operative, Iyad A'adin Akre, and carried out military training in Turkey and Syria, which included weapons training and learning how to manufacture explosives, in order to promote attacks against Israeli targets.
