During the night, IDF soldiers working with border police arrested 11 PA (Palestinian Authority) residents in areas of Yehuda and Shomron who are suspected of participating in acts of terror and/or violent confrontations with security forces.

During the operation, soldiers found and confiscated an M16 assault rifle, leading to the arrest of two Shechem residents in the Tapuach Junction area of Shomron.

The soldiers stopped a suspicious vehicle for inspection and found the weapon and magazines as seen in the photo. The two suspects are in their 20s and 30s and have been handed over to security officials for questioning.
