Israeli security forces arrested a Palestinian Islamic Jihad operative in Bethlehem earlier this week. The 48-year-old suspect, who also works as a taxi driver, was reportedly involved in rehabilitating the organization's infrastructure in the area, planning external operations, and transferring terror funds. The operation, led by the Etzion Regional Brigade in close cooperation with the Shin Bet, involved the Gideonim 33 unit of Lahav 433.
