In the operation to locate weapons: the security forces located two shafts and ruled out the suspicion of a tunnel

In addition, the forces arrested four suspects of terrorist activity and located weapons, cartridges and two shafts

The forces of the IDF, the IOS Special Forces and the Shi District under the command of the Ephraim Brigade carried out during the night an activity to locate weapons in Kalkiliya, following intelligence information received about the presence of weapons in the area.

During the operation, two shafts were located at depths of about 12 meters and weapons were found near the shafts, including an M16 rifle, a hunting rifle, a gun and ammunition that were confiscated by the forces.

Contrary to official and irresponsible messages issued on the subject, at the end of the exploration of the shafts, the presence of a tunnel route in the shafts was ruled out and the proximity of the shaft to the seam area was ruled out.

Also, the forces arrested four suspects of terrorist activity, who are under investigation by the security forces.

During these hours, the security forces continue a wide-ranging activity in the area in order to locate and rule out the existence of additional shafts, and carry out extensive operations to locate additional weapons. The security forces will continue to act with initiative and attacks to counter terrorism throughout the Judea and Samaria Division and to maintain the security of the residents.
