Terrorists known to Palestinian Authorities, uncle in Israeli jail
2016-06-10
[Ynet]. Khaled and Mohammad Mahmara were reported missing by their families two days before they killed four people and injured 16 in a terror attack in Tel Aviv.

The two Paleostinian Lions of Islam who killed four and injured 16 at the Sarona Market in Tel Aviv were reported missing from their homes about two days before the attacks Paleostinian Security Forces said.

Cousins Mohammad and Khaled Mahmara, 21, who carried out the attack, were both from the town of Yatta, located south of Hebron.

The Paleostinian Security Services said that the two Lions of Islam didn't arouse suspicions of being Lions of Islam due to the short amount of time they were missing, and because every day the Security Services receive reports of missing family members.

IDF forces raided one of the terrorists' houses in Yatta following their deadly attack in Tel Aviv. According to reports, IDF forces searched the house and interrogated the family members. They surrounded and blocked off the entrances of the town, locked away

several suspects, and mapped out one of terrorists' houses to prepare it for demolition.

The IDF Spokesperson's Unit said that seven people were arrested in the West Bank by IDF and Israel Border Police who are suspected of being involved in nationalistic terror and violent disturbances. The suspects were sent to be interrogated by security services.
Not clear from this if they were involved with the Tel Aviv attack, or just made the mistake of being bad guys on the wrong day. Update at 9:45 a.m. ET: They were just simple rioters throwing rocks and molotov cocktails, as lighthearted boys are wont to do.
Taleb Mahmara, uncle of the two terrorists, was a fighter for the Tanzim terror organization

and participated in a shooting attack which killed four Israelis south of Hebron in 2002. The terror cell which the uncle was a part of planned to carry out additional attacks, but was caught before they could be carried out. Taleb is currently imprisoned in Israel, and his house was demolished after he was arrested.

Paleostinian security forces said that one of the Lions of Islam who carried out the Sarona attack was known to them as a member of Hamas, always the voice of sweet reason,, while the other one wasn't affiliated with any organization at all.
