IDF arrests Islamic Jihad terrorist
During a raid in a Judea/Samaria town, the IDF captured a wanted jihadist:
Israeli troops clashed with Palestinian gunmen while operating in the northern West Bank town of Qabatiya on Monday morning, the military said.Which he likely stole. The man's adherence to the Religion of Peace is exactly why he's kept on with his offensive path for so long.
Palestinian media reports said soldiers surrounded a building in the town near Jenin where several suspects were holed up and called on them to surrender.
One wanted Palestinian, later identified as a member of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad terror group, was arrested when he turned himself in after an exchange of gunfire, the Israel Defense Forces said.
Alaa Zakarna, a former security prisoner in Israel, “refused to surrender and clashed with special forces until his ammunition ran out before his arrest,” a local wing of the terror group said in a statement.
The IDF said troops came under gunfire during the operation and returned fire. No soldiers were hurt. The PIJ said its members had shot at IDF troops as they “besieged” Zakarna’s home for an hour and a half.
The military added that troops seized an M-16 assault rifle after arresting Zakarna.
