Israeli security forces have thwarted a terror attack targeting Israel Defense Forces (IDF) soldiers in Jerusalem's Old City. A joint operation by the police and the Shin Bet (Israel Security Agency) led to the arrest of an 18-year-old suspect from Umm al-Fahm. Authorities suspect the individual pledged allegiance to the Islamic State (ISIS) and had been planning an attack against soldiers for the past year. Investigators believe the suspect identified with ISIS and actively worked to advance the attack plan. During a search of the suspect's home, investigators seized physical and digital evidence that they say strengthens the suspicions against him. A statement of charges was filed against the suspect on Tuesday, paving the way for a formal indictment.
