Israeli Security Forces Arrest Multiple Palestinians in Tel Aviv Terror Plot

Israeli security forces arrested several Palestinians in Tel Aviv following an alert from the Shin Bet about a planned terror attack in the city. Two suspects from the Nablus area, who were in Israel illegally, were caught near the Tel Aviv Port after an hours-long manhunt and transferred for interrogation in a joint police and Shin Bet operation. Hebrew media reported that additional Palestinians connected to the plot were also detained, though official confirmation is pending. The arrests occurred amid heightened tensions and frequent security warnings regarding attempts by Palestinian operatives to infiltrate Israeli urban centers and attack civilian areas. Since October 7, 2023, over 53 people, including Israeli security personnel, have been killed in terror attacks, while Israeli forces have arrested thousands of wanted Palestinians across the West Bank. The ongoing conflict has resulted in significant casualties on both sides, with Israeli forces emphasizing that most Palestinian deaths were militants or individuals involved in violent clashes.
