A Palestinian gunman behind shooting attacks from the West Bank against the Israeli town of Bat Hefer in May, was detained earlier this month, police announce.
A joint IDF, Shin Bet and police statement says Amar Nasrallah was arrested on June 5 in the Tulkarem camp.
During his interrogation, “Amar admitted that he was a member of a terror cell that carried out shooting attacks on towns near the [border] fence, and in addition incriminated other suspects belonging to the cell,” the statement says.
Footage published by police shows officers shooting Nasrallah as he allegedly attempted to flee. He was wounded and captured.
