Officers of the police’s elite Yamam unit detained a cell of five terror operatives in the northern West Bank that was planning an “imminent” attack, security forces say.
The police, IDF, and Shin Bet say that the members of the cell were nabbed in the village of Barta’a, which straddles the Green Line.
The arrest comes as the military says it continues to carry out a major counterterrorism operation in several northern West Bank towns.
