Israeli security forces have arrested six individuals from the Jenin area, all in their 30s, on suspicion of manufacturing rockets and explosives intended for use against Israel. The arrests followed an investigation spanning several months by the Central Unit of the Judea and Samaria District Police and the Shin Bet security agency. During the investigation, security forces seized weapons, including an M16 rifle and an RPG launcher, along with evidence of rocket and explosive production. Investigators discovered that the suspects had manufactured rocket bodies and explosive devices, and conducted three test launches. The group received instructions on necessary materials for explosives production via a messaging app from an external contact connected to the main suspect. Written materials detailing the production of explosives, rockets, and charges were also confiscated. A prosecutor's statement has been filed against the six suspects, and indictments are expected in the coming days.
