Hizballah Cell Cracked in Nablus


(Jerusalem Post) Margot Dudkevitch - Three Palestinians suspected of being recruited by Hizballah to compile intelligence on the deployment of IDF troops and the locations of IDF bases, and surveil the movements of an Israeli VIP who was to be targeted for attack, were arrested in Nablus on Feb. 25.
