In a joint operation with IDF troops, undercover Border Police forces successfully foiled a potential terror attack in Nablus, West Bank, on June 3, 2024. These undercover troops, supported by military intelligence, conducted a high-risk mission near the Balata refugee camp to apprehend a senior terror suspect.

The operation took place during broad daylight as the security forces closed in on the location where the suspect was believed to be hiding. Upon realizing the presence of the military, the suspect attempted to escape onto the roof of the building, holding a weapon in his hand.

Faced with imminent danger, the troops made a swift decision and engaged the suspect. Regrettably, the suspect was killed as he tried to flee. The exact circumstances leading to his death are yet to be established.

Simultaneously, a firefight broke out between the troops and armed terrorists in the vicinity. The terrorists, armed with firearms and explosives, opened fire and launched explosive devices at the soldiers. In response, the troops returned fire, successfully hitting some of the terrorists. However, it remains unclear if any additional terrorists were killed during the exchange.

Acknowledging the ongoing operation, the IDF highlighted the crucial role of the undercover forces and IDF troops in preventing a potential terror attack and neutralizing a senior suspect. The joint operation exemplifies the dedication and coordination between security forces and military intelligence in safeguarding the region.

Authorities are currently engaged in further investigations to gather more information regarding the thwarted attack, the senior terror suspect, and the identities of the armed terrorists involved. As the situation develops, the IDF continues to remain vigilant and ensure the safety and security of the area.

In conclusion, the joint operation carried out by undercover Border Police forces and IDF troops in Nablus successfully thwarted a potential terror attack, resulting in the killing of a senior suspect. The IDF remains committed to countering terrorism and maintaining peace in the region.
