IAF aircraft attacked a terror cell in Jenin after terrorists hurled explosives at IDF soldiers and Border Police officers acting in the area.

A number of terrorists were eliminated in the airstrike.

In addition, engineering tools revealed premade, ready-to-use explosives which had been buried under the roads in order to harm Israeli forces. Forces from the Haruv commando unit located a building booby-trapped with explosives, and destroyed an underground tunnel shaft which was within it.

In another building, the Duvdevan unit discovered ammunition and military gear, along with M-16 rifles.

Earlier this week, Israeli forces arrested terrorist Atta Abu Ramila, 63, and his son, in the city of Jenin.

Abu Ramila is a senior terrorist in the Jenin area, and his son is also a terrorist in the region.

In recent months, Atta Abu Ramila has promoted terror activity and provided funding to the tune of tens of thousands of shekels, aiding wanted individuals and terror operatives. Most of his activities were focused on the Jenin area, and he played a significant role in escalating the security situation in the area.
