The IDF says it operated overnight in the southern west Bank town of Dura, at the home of the terrorist who carried out last night’s stabbing attack in Gan Yavne.
Three Israelis were seriously wounded in the attack at a mall in the city, close to Ashdod.
At the home of the 19-year-old Palestinian stabber, who was shot dead by a police officer, the IDF says troops questioned suspects and searched the area.
Nine wanted Palestinians were arrested elsewhere in the West Bank during overnight raids, the IDF says.
