Palestinian gunmen ‘planning significant attacks’ killed in Jenin gunbattle with IDF
|
[IsraelTimes] 4 dead include Abd al-Rahman Hazem, whose brother killed 3 in Tel Aviv terror attack; Hazem and 2nd gunman carried out several recent attacks; PA man who opened fire among killed
At least four Paleostinians were killed in an Israeli military raid Wednesday morning in the northern West Bank city of Jenin, Israeli and Paleostinian officials said.
A Border Police front man said in a statement that officers along with Israel Defense Forces soldiers sought to arrest Abd al-Rahman Hazem, the brother of a terrorist who carried out a deadly shooting attack in Tel Aviv earlier this year, and Muhammed Alownah.
The pair were responsible for a series of shooting attacks in recent months, including one that targeted a Defense Ministry engineering vehicle working along the northern West Bank security barrier earlier this month, the police front man said. Israeli officials said the pair planned "more significant attacks in the near future."
Israeli troops had surrounded the home belonging to the family of Ra’ad Hazem, the terrorist who opened fire on April 7 on patrons at the Ilka bar on Dizengoff street in Tel Aviv, killing three.
Footage published by Paleostinian media outlets showed smoke rising from the building in Jenin.
Paleostinian media reported that troops fired small missiles at the building, but the IDF and police said the wanted button men set off a large bomb as troops attempted to enter the home. The IDF later published drone footage showing the moment the two button men set off the bombs as troops surrounded the home.
"Hazem and Alownah were killed in the exchange of fire," police said, adding that troops seized an assault rifle from one of the button men.
Police also published headcam footage of officers approaching the home and killing one of the button men who appeared to have jumped out of the building.
The Paleostinian Authority health ministry said another two people were killed in the festivities, and 44 others were hurt, including several listed at death's door.

...created after many members of the Egyptian Moslem Brotherhood decided the organization was becoming too moderate. Operations were conducted out of Egypt until 1981 when the group was exiled after the assassination of President Anwar Sadat. They worked out of Gaza until they were exiled to Lebanon in 1987, where they clove tightly to Hezbollah. In 1989 they moved to Damascus, where they remain a subsidiary of Hezbollah...
terror group said its members shot up troops near the Hazem family home.
The third killed Paleostinian was identified as Ahmed Alawneh, 24, a member of the Paleostinian Authority security forces. He was killed as he was firing at Israeli troops in the area, according to footage published by Paleostinian media outlets.
The fourth fatality was named as Muhammad Abu Na’asa.
There were no Israeli injuries in the operation.
Hazem’s father, Fathi, as well as two of his brothers, have been wanted for questioning since the attack. Fathi Hazem publicly praised his son’s actions following the deadly assault on the busy bar.
Hazem killed Tomer Morad and Eytam Magini, two friends aged 27, and Barak Lufan, a 35-year-old father of three, in the shooting and injured about a dozen others. He went on the run following the murders and was found hiding near a mosque in Jaffa after an hours-long manhunt involving hundreds of security officers. While initially raising his hands in surrender, Hazem then drew a gun and opened fire on the officers, who fired back and killed him, security forces said at the time.
Earlier this month, the IDF demolished Hazem’s apartment in the Jenin refugee camp.
The IDF raid Wednesday came amid rising violence in the West Bank, particularly in its north.
On Tuesday night, Israeli troops came under gunfire near the Paleostinian town of Asira ash-Shamaliya during "routine activity."
