Shin Bet, cops to round up terror convicts with IS links in wave of arrests — TV

The Shin Bet and police are expected tonight to round up former terror convicts with Islamic State links and those investigated for suspected connections to the jihadist group, according to the Kan public broadcaster.

The report says those arrested overnight will be warned against taking part in terror activities, and anyone considered highly suspect will be held in custody.

A security source quoted by the broadcaster says that following Prime Minister Naftali Bennett’s announcement earlier today, administrative detention will be used against high-risk suspects to prevent any further attacks.

The controversial practice allows Israeli authorities to hold suspects without charge.

The report also says security services have a list of suspects with IS connections who possess weapons.
