IDF Kills "Terrorist Mastermind" in Nablus
[Jerusalem Post] Josh Brannon - IDF forces operating in Nablus early Thursday killed Fadi Kafisha, 29, commander of Fatah's Al Aksa Martyrs' Brigades in the city and a "terrorist mastermind" who was financed and directed by Hizballah. "He was the chief fugitive in Nablus, an explosives expert, and responsible for many attacks, " said Col. Amir Braum, commander of the Shomron Brigade. IDF officials said Kafisha was the West Bank's chief bomb "engineer" who personally assembled dozens of explosive belts in the past year. "Since the end of the war in the north, there has been an escalation in the activities of terror organizations in Nablus," Braum said.
