Israeli Security Forces Arrest 10 Suspected Terror Cell Members in Northern Samaria

Israeli security forces carried out a targeted arrest operation on Monday morning in the village of Arraba, within the area of responsibility of the Menashe Regional Brigade, detaining ten suspects allegedly involved in terrorist activity. According to the Israel Defense Forces (IDF), the suspects belonged to a cell that was working to establish a terrorist network with the aim of carrying out an attack against Israeli civilians in northern Samaria.

The operation was conducted based on intelligence provided by the Israel Security Agency (Shin Bet) and involved coordination among several security units. Soldiers from the Paratroopers Reconnaissance Unit and the elite Duvdevan Unit participated in the operation, alongside Border Police forces stationed in Judea and Samaria.

Security Forces Conduct Coordinated Raids

During the operation, security forces carried out simultaneous raids at several locations throughout the village. The arrests were carefully coordinated among the participating units as part of an effort to dismantle the suspected terrorist cell and prevent its alleged plans from being carried out.

In an official statement, the IDF said that its forces had “arrested ten terrorists in a coordinated operation who were working to establish a terrorist infrastructure in order to carry out an attack against Israeli civilians in northern Samaria.”

The military confirmed that the operation was completed during the morning hours following searches and arrests at multiple locations in the village.

All ten suspects were transferred to security authorities for further questioning. Investigators will examine their alleged involvement in terrorist activities, as well as the connections and coordination between members of the suspected cell.
