🚨 THREE TERROR SUSPECTS ARRESTED OVER ALLEGED GANIM INAUGURATION ATTACK PLOT

Israeli counter-terrorism forces arrested three wanted Arab suspects in Jenin overnight over an alleged plot to attack Thursday’s inauguration of the renewed Ganim community in northern Samaria.
Ganim, given the the Biblical name of Jenin, was founded in 1983 near Jenin, then dismantled by the IDF in 2005 as part of the Ariel Sharon experiment in disengagement from the Gaza Strip and of the West Bank following the second intifada. Ganim was just reestablished, one of a series of 41 Jewish communities in the West Bank that since May 2025 are being reestablished after being abandoned as part of that 2005 experiment.
YAMAM, acting on Shin Bet intelligence under the Menashe Brigade, arrested the suspects separately without resistance. They were transferred for questioning.

In May 2025, the security cabinet approved the establishment of 22 new West Bank settlements, including Homesh and Sa-Nur, and in December, it approved the establishment of another 19 settlements

The ceremony was expected to draw senior Israeli officials as Ganim’s resettlement resumes 20 years after its evacuation.

Yossi Dagan said: “We will not be deterred and we will not stop.”

He pledged to establish additional communities, arguing terrorism would not determine where Jews live.
