Israeli security forces have thwarted a terror attack targeting IDF soldiers in Jerusalem's Old City. The plot was uncovered through a joint operation by the police and the Shin Bet (Israel Security Agency) following an investigation over the past month. An 18-year-old from Umm al-Fahm was arrested on suspicion of pledging allegiance to the Islamic State (ISIS) and planning an attack against soldiers in the capital.

According to the investigation by the Coastal District's Central Unit and the Shin Bet, the suspect expressed support for ISIS and swore allegiance to the organization. He is suspected of planning the attack against IDF soldiers in the Old City area of Jerusalem over the past year. Police searching his home seized digital materials and other findings that corroborated the suspicions against him.

Both agencies emphasized their continued commitment to thwarting terror attacks and identifying individuals involved in terrorist activities to protect national security and citizens.
