IDF forces are continuing to operate in the village of Bayt Surik, near the Har Adar settlement that was the site of a deadly terror attack earlier today.

The village is home to the attacker, Nimer Mahmoud Ahmad Jamal.

An IDF statement says: “As part of the operation, IDF and Border Police forces swept the village, raided the terrorist’s home and blockaded the village. Various forces and intelligence methods were deployed, visible and hidden, in the roads and paths [around the village] in order to ensure security in the area.”

Three people were arrested in the operation, the army says.
