Israeli military forces and an emergency squad chased at least three Arab suspects Saturday night who fled to a nearby wadi after infiltrating the Jewish community of Rosh Tzurim, in the Gush Etzion area of Judea.

At least three homes were broken into and robbed during the day on the Sabbath (Saturday). The suspects were spotted on security cameras as they fled the community.
