Three wanted Palestinians who were allegedly planning an imminent terror attack were captured by Israeli forces in the West Bank city of Jenin overnight, according to Israeli security authorities.

Troops of the police’s elite Yamam unit raided a building in Jenin and apprehended the trio, following information provided by the Shin Bet on their whereabouts.

The IDF, police, and Shin Bet say the three Palestinians are suspected of planning to carry out a terror attack in the “immediate timeframe.”
