[Ha'aretz] Yuval Azoulay - Israeli security forces operating in Nablus apprehended Firas Tashtush, a senior Fatah-Tanzim gunman who had violated a signed pledge to cease all terror-related activities. He is suspected of planning to supply Tanzim members with explosive materials, and was said to have taken part in attacks against IDF troops. Tashtush, 24, signed an agreement a few months ago which committed him to ceasing any involvement in terror-related activities. Nevertheless, it became clear to security authorities that Tashtush "grossly" deviated from the agreement, eschewing his pledge to desist from participation in terror activities.
