The IDF has arrested one of the most wanted Hamas mass murderers: IDF seizes Hamas bomb mastermind.
After an eight-year manhunt, Israeli security forces early Tuesday seized the Ramallah-area commander of Hamas’ military wing, Israel’s most wanted man in the West Bank.
Sheikh Ibrahim Hamed, 41, has been wanted since 1998 for terror attacks that claimed the lives of 78 Israeli civilians and soldiers. Hamed was arrested at a hideout in the al-Balua neighborhood of Ramallah, surrendering to a combined force of Israel Defense Forces troops from the Duchifat infantry battalion, the Shin Bet security service, and the police’s Yamam anti-terror unit.
Carl in Jerusalem has more details on the terror attacks committed by this creature.
Hamed is allegedly responsible for killing 78 Israelis and wounding hundreds more in a string of terror attacks, including the bombings of the Moment Cafe in Jerusalem the city’s Hebrew University cafeteria (a bombing that killed five Americans) the Ben Yehuda Mall near Zion Square, Cafe Hillel (where my daughter’s friend Nava Appelbaum and her father Dr. David Appelbaum were murdered on the night before her wedding), and the IDF base near Tsrifin.
