As part of a joint IDF and Shin Bet operation in the area of southern Jenin on Tuesday, the forces eliminated Sultan al-Ghani, the terrorist who murdered Gideon Perry with a hammer and stole his firearm and vehicle on August 18th, 2024, at the Baron Industrial Zone near Kedumim.
Ever since his escape following the attack, the Shin Bet and IDF conducted a non-stop intelligence effort to close the circle and eliminate the terrorist.
During an overnight operation, IDF soldiers apprehended five terrorist accomplices. Following that, the forces encircled the building in which the terrorist was holed up, and after an exchange of fire, the soldiers eliminated him.
During a search in the structure, the soldiers located a ‘Carlo’ style weapon, an M16 weapon, explosives, and magazines with ammunition.
