Israeli security forces have arrested an 18-year-old man from Umm al-Fahm on suspicion of pledging allegiance to the Islamic State (ISIS) and planning an attack against Israel Defense Forces (IDF) soldiers in Jerusalem's Old City. The investigation, conducted over the past month by the Coastal District's Central Unit of the police and the Shin Bet (Israel Security Agency), uncovered serious security offenses, including membership in a terror organization and preparations for a terror act. Evidence suggests the suspect swore loyalty to ISIS and had been planning the attack against IDF soldiers in the Old City area for the past year. Following his arrest, detectives searched his home, seizing digital materials and other findings that authorities say bolster the suspicions of his support for the organization and involvement in the attack plot. With the investigation complete, prosecutors have filed a statement of intent to indict, paving the way for formal charges.
