Israeli security forces eliminated a terrorist overnight in the western Samaria city of Qalqilya who was planning an imminent attack against Israeli civilians, according to a police statement on Tuesday.
Israel’s National Counter-Terrorism Unit (Yamam) and Israel Defense Forces troops arrived at the scene acting on Israel Security Agency (Shin Bet) intelligence. The suspect opened fire, sparking a firefight that included shoulder-fired missiles and an armed drone, during which the terrorist was killed and two others neutralized.
A submachine gun was recovered from the site. No Israeli forces were injured in the operation.
