Hamas terrorist responsible for injuring IDF soldier in an operation in Nablus arrested in manhunt

The suspect, identified as Hamas operative Zaid Haraz, was arrested on Monday morning following a day-long manhunt.

Israeli security forces have arrested the suspect in a Palestinian shooting attack that wounded a soldier during a counterterror operation in Shechem (Nablus).

The suspect, identified as Hamas operative Zaid Haraz, was arrested on Monday morning following a day-long manhunt. Additional suspects who assisted Haraz’s escape were also detained.

On Sunday morning, the operation in Nablus, West Bank, left an IDF soldier moderately wounded as a result of a terrorist's gunfire. After the incident, the IDF started a manhunt, which ended today with Haraz's arrest.

The soldier was taken to the hospital for medical care, and his family was notified.

West Bank terrorist violence against the IDF has been a current reality in the territories.
