(Jerusalem Post) Five Palestinian terrorists who were hiding inside a mosque in the West Bank city of Tulkarm were killed by Israeli security forces on Thursday. They included Muhhamad Jabber, the head of a terrorist network in Nur Shams, who was involved in the murder of Israeli Amnon Muchtar in June. The IDF also arrested Muhammad Qassas, a senior terrorist operative in Palestinian Islamic Jihad. According to Palestinian reports, IDF soldiers entered the area dressed in civilian clothes and proceeded to the mosque, where a shootout took place. The IDF also discovered a laboratory for manufacturing explosive devices and a terrorist operations room inside the Abu Bakr al Siddiq Mosque in Far'a in the Jordan Valley. While searching the facility, the IDF found explosive devices which it deemed "too dangerous to use or even move," and destroyed them.
