The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) carried out a number of missions this week, protecting the nations’ citizens from those who seek to do them harm.
According to a statement by the IDF, the army detained 60 suspected terrorists in Judea and Samaria. In addition, the IDF confiscated tens of thousands of shekels earmarked to fund terror activities.
The weapons appeared to be held for use in terror attacks or criminal activity, the latter of which has become nothing short of an epidemic in Arab towns.
The Israeli military also secured the skies from potential terrorist attacks.
On Saturday night, the IDF shot down an unmanned drone after it crossed the Gaza border into Israeli territory, Israel’s Channel 12 news outlet reported.
According to the report, the drone was unarmed and was taken by the IDF for further investigation.
On Friday, Hamas canceled the weekly violent riots at the Gaza border, marking only the fourth time since 2018 that this has happened.
The Hamas-controlled organization that perpetrates the riots said that the rare cancellation was called for to allow the “Palestinian people to continue to provide assistance to family members of martyrs and wounded persons and those whose homes were damaged in the Israeli aggression,” which was a reference to counter-strikes following Islamic Jihad’s massive multi-day rocket attacks on the Jewish state.
