One Palestinian was killed and a suspect arrested as soldiers from the IDF’s Duvdevan commando unit, guided by Shin Bet intelligence, conducted an undercover raid earlier today in the northern West Bank city of Nablus, the IDF says.

According to the military, troops stormed a building where the suspect, wanted for terror activity in the nearby Balata refugee camp, was hiding and successfully arrested him.

During the operation, another man dropped concrete blocks at the troops from a nearby rooftop. Soldiers responded with gunfire, killing the attacker.

The IDF says the operation was part of ongoing efforts to disrupt terrorist networks in the West Bank.
