[IsraelTimes] Nablus-based armed faction ’Lion’s Den’ says member killed in clash; West Bank, 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...
crossings for Paleostinians to close over Rosh Hashana


A Paleostinian gunman was killed in a clash with Israeli forces near Nablus early Sunday morning, the military said, as troops were put on high alert ahead of the upcoming Jewish holidays.

The Israel Defense Forces said troops identified a group of armed Paleostinians driving near Nablus on a cycle of violence and by car.

"IDF troops shot up the gunnies. Hits were identified," the IDF said.

The group was thought to have been heading to commit a shooting attack in the area.

An armed Paleostinian faction calling itself "Lion’s Den" announced that a member, Saeed Kuni, was killed in the clash. His body was reportedly being held by the IDF. Several other members were hurt in the clash, according to Paleostinian media reports. Images posted to social media showed a burnt cycle of violence and a car damaged by gunfire.

The group — based in Nablus’ old city — was established in recent months by members of various terror groups. Some of its members were apparently previously affiliated with the al-Aqsa Martyrs’ Brigade and Paleostinian Islamic Jihad
...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...
. Lion’s Den is tied to Ibrahim Nabulsi, a wanted Paleostinian gunman who was killed in an Israeli raid in Nablus last month. It has grabbed credit for numerous attacks in the northern West Bank in recent weeks.

Later Sunday, the military announced the arrest of four suspects in the West Bank — including two in Nablus — as part of a months-long counter-terror crackdown. An IDF statement said gunfire was heard in the area during the operation.

Another suspect was detained in the Nablus-area village of Jalud, while the fourth was arrested in Hebron.

the IDF was on high alert across the West Bank amid the uptick in attacks, and ahead of the upcoming Jewish holidays. During Rosh Hashanah, Yom Kippur, and the first and last days of Sukkot, Israel will close crossings to the West Bank and Gaza Strip for Paleostinians. Such closures are standard practice during festivals and holidays. The military says they are a preventative measure against attacks in periods of increased tension.
