Israeli security forces arrested 12 suspects across Yehudah and Shomron over the weekend in connection to the recent terror wave inside Israel, security forces said Sunday.

The IDF and the Shin Bet said they had conducted “joint counterterrorism activities,” in several PA locations, including the flashpoint districts of Chevron and Jenin, where the forces “apprehended a total of 12 individuals suspected of involvement in terror activities over the weekend.”

Among those arrested was an individual suspected of helping Raad Hazem carry out the deadly terror attack in Tel Aviv earlier this month, which claimed the lives of three men, Hy”d, and in which dozens were injured.

The arrest operation is the latest in a string of counterterrorism operations conducted by Israeli forces in response to the flurry of deadly terror attacks earlier this month, in which 14 Israelis were murdered in the span of just two weeks in a number of separate terror attacks across the country.
