Jerusalem, 27 December, 2023 (TPS) -- Six armed Palestinian terrorists were killed in clashes with Israeli security forces in the Nur Shams refugee camp in Samaria on Tuesday night, the Israel Defense Forces said on Wednesday.

Security forces in the camp uncovered and destroyed explosive devices buried under and on the sides of the roads.

Three terror suspects were arrested. Weapons and money were confiscated.

Another 11 wanted Palestinians were arrested in other raids around Judea and Samaria.

In the Dheisha refugee camp near Bethlehem, security forces confiscated equipment at a printing press that printed inciting material for Hamas.

Since October 7, approximately 2,550 terror suspects have been arrested in Judea and Samaria. Around 1,300 were associated with Hamas.
