Israel's security agency, Shin Bet, recently announced the foiling of a terrorist plot orchestrated by three ISIS members aimed at carrying out attacks in Jerusalem. The thwarted plan involved two individuals intending to use explosives and small arms fire to target a police station and a stadium in east Jerusalem. These individuals had pledged allegiance to ISIS and had received training from a third ISIS terrorist who specialized in organizing attacks within Israel.
The third terrorist, who had received training abroad, encouraged the other two men to undergo similar training before executing the planned attacks. Fortunately, all three suspects were apprehended last month before they could leave the country. Authorities revealed that the individuals, all in their 20s, had begun preparations for the attacks, including acquiring knowledge on creating explosives and carrying out assaults.
