The Shin Bet (Israel Security Agency) revealed on Monday the news of the arrests of 117 Hamas activists from three separate infrastructures in the Hebron area.
The activists were involved in the abduction and murder of Sasson Nuriel, the suicide bomb attack in the Beersheba bus station in August, and in a planned bombing of an air force helicopter at a training base in the Judean desert.
A senior Shin Bet official noted that the infrastructures continued to operate intensively to launch attacks, despite the tahdiya called in February of this year; they were responsible for the deaths of six Israelis and the wounding of scores.
