(Worthy News) – Israel recently foiled terror attacks planned by West Bank Palestinians recruited via Facebook by Hezbollah operatives living in Lebanon and the Gaza Strip, Israel’s Shin Bet security service announced on Tuesday.
According to the Shin Bet, Hezbollah has long been working to recruit Palestinians to commit shootings and suicide bombings in Israel.
The security service said one of the cells was instructed to commit an attack on an Israeli military patrol. It was headed by an 18-year-old who was allegedly recruited via a pro-jihadist Facebook page. He purportedly remained in contact with his Hezbollah handlers through Facebook and later through a specially created email account. [ Source ]
