A Palestinian man planning an “imminent” shooting attack against Israeli civilians was apprehended by Israeli troops in the West Bank city of Hebron over the weekend, the military announces.

The IDF says troops raided Hebron on Saturday and captured Abd al-Rahman, following information provided by the Shin Bet security agency about his plans to “carry out a shooting attack against Israeli civilians in the immediate timeframe” during the Rosh Hashanah holiday.
