Jihad Abu Sawara is the latest leading Hamas terrorist to be killed by IDF forces. The army encircled his house in the Nuseirat neighborhood in Gaza late last night, and called out for him to give himself up. Instead, he opened fire and wounded three soldiers. Israel Air Force helicopters fired missiles at the building, and the terrorist's body was later found in the rubble. One of the wounded soldiers was operated on in Soroka Hospital in Be'er Sheva, and is listed in serious condition.
Palestinian terrorists fired at a civilian convoy making its way to the central Gaza community of Netzarim last night, and fired anti-tank missiles IDF outposts in Ganei Tal and on the Israeli-Egyptian border. Another shell was fired at Netzarim this afternoon. No one was hurt in these incidents.
Two terrorists, a male and female, on their way to a suicide attack were arrested last night in the village of Tubas, in the northern Jordan Valley. One of their handlers was apprehended as well, in an operation carried out by troops of the Nachal HaHareidi and Battalion 500. It was later ascertained that the female terrorist's sister murdered three people four months ago when she blew herself up outside a mall in Afula.
An infiltrator from Jordan was caught this morning on the Israeli side of the Dead Sea. He said that he swam for 15 hours from Jordan. Israeli forces detained and interrogated him.
