Wave of Palestinian Attacks Seen as Tip of the Iceberg
(Ynet News) Alex Fishman - The latest lone-wolf Palestinian attacks in Israel are only the tip of the iceberg. The growing main threat detected by the Israel Security Agency in the past year involves terror cells inspired by the Islamic State, mainly in the Jerusalem area and in northern Samaria. The wave of lone wolf attacks - which began on Oct. 1, 2015 - was curbed in April. In addition to warnings of 50-60 potential lone-wolf terrorists, there are about 15 local cells in the West Bank that have carried out or are about to carry out shooting attacks. Some of these cells are based on Hamas infrastructure.
