Israel Police say they arrested two Galilee residents for planning attacks with the Tulkarem Brigades terror group.
Nur Shabaat, a resident of the town of Nahf, and Amir Kaywan, a resident of the nearby village of Deir al-Assad, were arrested in March.
During interrogation by police and the Shin Bet security service, it was found that Shabaat made contact with the Tulkarem Brigades to participate in their activities, as well as the activities of other terror groups in the West Bank.
Shabaat then asked Kaywan for assistance with the plans, including asking Kaywan on several occasions to carry out stabbing attacks against security forces on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem during Ramadan.
Indictments were filed today against the two, listing several security offenses, police say.
