Israel arrests alleged accomplice in Monday’s terror attack in West Bank’s Qalqilya
Israeli forces today arrested a resident of the West Bank’s Qalqilya who was allegedly part of a terror cell that seriously wounded an Israeli man in the city this week, the IDF, police and Shin Bet say in a joint statement.
The Israeli man, in his 60s, was shot on Monday by Tariq Daoud, 18, near a car repair shop in Qalqilya, with IDF troops rescuing him and taking him to an Israeli hospital. Daoud himself was tracked down and shot dead shortly after the attack.
Interrogated by the Shin Bet, the man arrested today has tied himself to the attack and said he provided the intelligence about the Israeli man being at the car repair shop, the statement says.
