Hours ago, Israeli forces carried out a second operation against Hamas "Daawa" organizations, this tie in the Jordan Valley region. They confiscated documents and digital media in the raid. Under the guise of a charity association, the "Daawa'" orgnizations function as a system for the flow of terror funds.
The "Daawa'" organizations were declared illegal in Israel following the financial support they provided for families of suicide bombers and imprisoned terrorists. This financial and social support provides an incentive for terrorists to carry out attacks and increases public support of these terror organizations.
We also have some details on a thwarted suicide bombing attempt yesterday out of the West Bank. Following specific intelligence received in the early morning concerning a terror cell en route to carry out a suicide bombing, temporary roadblocks were set up along the route to be used. Three suspicious Palestinian taxis were stopped and a number of passengers were detained, among them the suicide bomber and his 6.5 lb. bomb.
Ahmed Mahmoud Salim Zayoub, 20, was found to be carrying an explosives-filled bag. Zayoub's initial questioning indicated that he intended to carry out a suicide bombing in a city in the center of the country, and that he was sent by the Tanzim terror infrastructure in Jenin, headed by Zecharia Zubeidi, however, other reports say he was sent by Islamic Jihad.
