(Ynet News) Elisha Ben Kimon - The IDF and Israel Security Agency eliminated senior Islamic Jihad terrorist Ahmed Barakat, who murdered Meir Tamari in May 2023 in a drive-by shooting near Hermesh, and was behind an attack on March 8 near Homesh that injured seven soldiers. The airstrike on a car in Jenin killed two other terrorists, but Muhammad Hawashin, commander of Islamic Jihad's Jenin branch, survived. The IDF said Barakat and Hawashin were planning "significant terror attacks" against Israeli civilians. They were also behind a recent thwarted attempt to infiltrate Israel with an explosive device. Since the beginning of the war, 3,500 wanted individuals have been arrested in the West Bank, including 1,500 linked to Hamas. About 350 terrorists were killed.
