Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz visited the Tulkarem refugee camp last Friday, following the attempted terror attacks in central Israel the previous night. Accompanied by senior military officials, Katz held a situational assessment and emphasized the importance of maintaining high-intensity operations as part of Operation “Iron Wall” to dismantle terror infrastructure.
Only a miracle happened here. At least 5 explosive devices were supposed to be detonated in a massive terrorist attack on buses throughout Israel. However, this did not occur. The terrorists thought they set the bombs to detonate at 9:00am but due to a mistake on their part the bombs blew up at 9:00pm. Thankfully, there were no injuries. Despite this miracle, it’s a clear indication of ongoing terrorist activity to destroy Israel and the IDF must ready itself in new ways to better secure this area. The release of multitudes of terrorists pursuant to the “hostage deal” is not helping the situation one iota.
