[IsraelTimes] Shin Bet says Sa’ad Abu Rakaik and Sameh al-Nabari, both in their 20s, were in direct contact with members of an organization based in coastal enclave.
Two Bedouin men from southern Israel were arrested last month for alleged ties to an unnamed terror group in the Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamaswith about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response ...
Strip, the Shin Bet security agency revealed Sunday.
According to the Shin Bet, Sa’ad Abu Rakaik, 20, from the city of Tel Sheva, and Sameh al-Nabari, 21, from a Negev village near Hura, were in direct contact with members of the group.
The pair were accused of helping funnel funds to Gaza for the group.
The Shin Bet said al-Nabari was also instructed to conduct "additional security tasks" for the group, including attempts to transfer weapons to another operative.
Indictments charging the pair with "serious security offenses" were filed on Sunday, according to the agency.
The service warned that Gaza-based terrorist groups were increasingly trying to carry out attacks in Israel, as well as in the West Bank.
The Shin Bet said the recent arrests have taught the agency a lot about Gaza-based terror groups’ attempts "that continue at all times, to recruit Israeli citizens for the purpose of carrying out terror activities."
The Shin Bet said it and the Israel Police "take any involvement or affiliation of Israeli citizens in terrorist activities very seriously, including being in contact with operatives from terrorist organizations, including from the Gaza Strip."
In July, a Bedouin man was arrested after he was recruited by a small Gaza-based terror group to join the Israeli military and transfer intelligence to it.
September’s arrests came at a time of rising violence in the West Bank.
Israeli forces have ratcheted up arrest raids and other counterterror efforts in the West Bank since a spate of terror attacks against Israelis in the spring killed 19 people.
In recent months, Paleostinian button men, including some affiliated with the Gaza-ruling Hamas, a regional Iranian catspaw,, have repeatedly attacked military posts, troops operating along the West Bank security barrier, Israeli settlements, and civilians on the roads.
Last month, security forces arrested a cell of four Paleostinians who allegedly planned to commit shooting attacks in the West Bank under orders of Hamas, and another Hamas cell of seven members who are accused of planning both shootings and bombings.
