In an overnight raid, Israel Defence Forces (IDF) and Border Police special forces killed four terrorists during an operation in Kafr Ni’man, near Ramallah, Israel. The raid aimed to arrest a member of a terror squad responsible for a Monday night attack against Jews and arson at the Sde Efraim farm, located east of Modi’in Illit, between Jerusalem and Tel Aviv. The targeted terrorist was among those killed.
During the operation, a police special forces fighter sustained a minor leg injury and received medical treatment.
Upon arrival, security forces surrounded the building where the suspects were hiding. The targeted terrorist and three others attempted to escape in a vehicle and tried to run over undercover agents operating in the area. The forces opened fire on the vehicle, resulting in the deaths of the terrorists.
A search of the vehicle revealed a Carlo-type weapon, a vest, and explosive charges.
