As part of an ongoing IDF operation in the West Bank’s Far’a camp, near Tubas, troops located what the military describes as a command room used by local terror operatives embedded within a mosque.
The site had numerous surveillance cameras hooked up to television screens, which, according to the IDF, was used by terror operatives to track Israeli forces.
A video from an IDF drone shows the entrance to the mosque, the walls of which are plastered with “martyr posters.” The video also shows equipment that the IDF says is used to build explosive devices.
Further inside the mosque, several primed explosive devices were found, according to the IDF.
This evening, Palestinian media report that the mosque was blown up.
Help us report truthfully on social media
As a multimedia journalist, my job is to take the quality, fact-based journalism produced by The Times of Israel newsroom and make it accessible across every platform — from Instagram posts to podcasts to short-form videos.
This is how many, especially young people, consume news these days. But misinformation is rampant on social media. Our team at ToI produces accurate, responsible short-form reporting on Israel and the Jewish world.
If you believe in the importance of factual social media journalism, please consider joining our reader support group, The Times of Israel Community. Your financial support is essential to sustain responsible multimedia reporting.
