Shin Bet and IDF forces today arrested a Palestinian man who was involved in a shooting attack at Rimonim Junction in September 2010, the Shin Bet has revealed.

Atef Rouhi al-Salahi, 43 years old from Silwad in the Binyamin region, had been arrested shortly after the attack by Palestinian security forces, but was recently released from custody. Following the release, al-Salahi was arrested today by Israeli forces and was taken for questioning.

For the third time today, a mortar was fired from Gaza towards IDF forces. An army force operating near Nahal Oz reported that the mortar landed in an open area, causing no casualties.

IDF forces responded by firing towards the attackers in Gaza.

A second incident of fire directed at IDF forces near the Gaza Border has been reported on Wednesday afternoon, causing no casualties. Hours after a mortar was fired at an IDF force near the southern border of the Gaza Strip, another IDF force reported a blast near them.

Following the incidents, IDF forces have responded with tank fire towards three military outposts in Shuja’iyya in Gaza, destroying one of them completely. Palestinian sources reported that nobody was injured in the outposts that belong to the Hamas military wing and the Islamic Jihad and are located near the border with Israel.

Four Israeli teenagers were rescued by IDF forces on Wednesday afternoon, after they accidentally entered a Palestinian village near Bethlehem. Nobody was hurt and the rescue was not accompanied by violent riots, as is common in similar incidents.

The teenagers were reportedly misled by navigation app Waze.

A mortar was shot from Gaza towards an IDF force that was engaged in operational activity near the southern border with the Strip on Wednesday morning, according to the IDF Spokesperson Unit. There were no casualties in the incident.

The IDF force responded with tank fire towards a suspicious outpost.
