(Ha'aretz) Jonathan Lis and Yaniv Kubovich - Israel foiled 400 major terror attacks in 2017, Israel Security Agency head Nadav Argaman told the Knesset Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee on Sunday. They included 13 suicide attacks and 8 kidnappings. A further 1,100 lone wolf attacks were thwarted. There were 54 attacks in 2017, compared with 108 in 2016. However, Argaman noted that "the calm we are experiencing is misleading, and Hamas is trying with all its might to carry out attacks."
