In the first attack, the terrorist Saleh Zakharna and the terrorist Abdel Hadi Kamil, from Qabatiya were eliminated.
Kamil was a former security prisoner who was imprisoned for planning terrorist acts. He was one of the terrorists released in November 2023 as part of a deal for the release of some of the hostages taken during the October 7 massacre.
After the attack, explosions of explosives that were in the terrorists’ vehicle were observed.
Also, in Jenin, IAF aircraft attacked two armed terrorist squads within a few hours.
