Members of the IDF, Border Police, and Shin Bet operated at the home of Samir Muhammad Ahmad Hussein, the Hamas terrorist who carried out a shooting attack earlier today near the West Bank city of Ariel.
In a statement, the military says the troops questioned suspects and searched for “additional findings in the area.”
Hussein, a member of Hamas, was previously jailed by Israel for his activities in the terror group, according to the Shin Bet.
His home is located in the West Bank village of Einabus, near the city of Nablus.
