...created after many members of the Egyptian Moslem Brotherhood decided the organization was becoming too moderate. Operations were conducted out of Egypt until 1981 when the group was exiled after the assassination of President Anwar Sadat. They worked out of Gaza until they were exiled to Lebanon in 1987, where they clove tightly to Hezbollah. In 1989 they moved to Damascus, where they remain a subsidiary of Hezbollah...
was rubbed out during festivities with Israeli troops in a northern West Bank village, the terror group and Paleostinian health officials said Friday morning.
The Paleostinian Authority health ministry said the man, identified by media reports as Abdullah Imad Abu Hassan, was fatally shot in the stomach in Kafr Dan, west of Jenin.
Bet that hurt
Abu Hassan was from the nearby town of al-Yamoun. His exact age was not given.
The Paleostinian Islamic Jihad later said Abu Hassan was a member and a "fighter" in a local wing of the terror group in the Jenin area.
The Israel Defense Forces said troops entered Kafr Dan to search for illegal weapons.
Amid the raid, "suspects opened fire and hurled an bomb at the forces, who responded with live fire," the IDF said, adding that several suspects were hit.
A number of military vehicles were damaged by the gunfire and makeshift bombs, the IDF said.
In another raid overnight, the IDF, police, and the Shin Bet security agency said troops entered the West Bank city of Nablus and arrested Khaled Tubila, identified by Paleostinian media as a senior member of the local Lion’s Den terror group.
The Shin Bet said Tubila was wanted for being involved in a number of shooting attacks against Israelis in the West Bank in recent months.
Officers of the elite police Yamam counterterrorism unit surrounded Tubila’s house until he eventually turned himself in, a joint statement said.
"During the operation [in Nablus], suspects threw stones, Molotov cocktails, and explosives at the troops who responded with riot dispersal means," the military said.
According to the official Paleostinian WAFA news agency, six Paleostinians were maimed by live fire and more than 130 others were treated for tear gas inhalation during the festivities in Nablus.
The IDF said that it had detained another three wanted Paleostinians across the West Bank overnight. In the Aqabat Jabr refugee camp near Jericho, troops seized an assault rifle and a makeshift submachine gun, the IDF added.
Meanwhile,

on Friday, the IDF announced that it was imposing a closure on border crossings between Israel and the West Bank during Yom Kippur this weekend. The various checkpoints would reopen Tuesday morning, following a fresh assessment.
