Two Palestinians arrested over April attack on kibbutz near northern West Bank

[IsraelTimes] The Shin Bet security agency says Israeli forces arrested a Paleostinian gunman suspected of carrying out a shooting attack targeting Kibbutz Meirav, adjacent to the northern West Bank border barrier, in April.

Yusef Abu al-Roub, 32, from the West Bank town of Jalbun near Jenin, allegedly shot up the town on April 18, damaging a home.

The Shin Bet says a second suspect, Mohammed al-Roub, 35, affiliated with the Islamic State

...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that they were al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're really very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear western pols talk they're not really Moslems....
jihadist group, was arrested for allegedly supplying the gun to al-Roub.

The weapon, a makeshift Carlo Gustav sub-machine gun, was handed over to security forces at the Salem checkpoint by Yusef’s father, the Shin Bet says.

Yusef confessed to have carried out the attack and told interrogators that he had taken pictures of the kibbutz over the course of several months and sent them to Mohammed.

He claimed he had carried out a string of shootings against Israeli forces in the area, the Shin Bet says, without confirming the claim.

Both were charged last week with serious security offenses, the agency adds.
