The action follows a Monday firefight in the area of eastern Nablus between Israeli forces and a wanted terrorist during counterterrorism operations.
Israeli security forces killed Sultan al-Ghani, the terrorist responsible for the 2024 murder of Gideon Perry, near Jenin in the northern West Bank, the IDF and Shin Bet (Israel Security Agency) said in a statement on Tuesday.
The event occured during a joint operation between the two agencies.
Perry, an Israeli security guard, was murdered in a 2024 terror attack during which Ghani stole his firearm and vehicle before escaping.
Five others were arrested during the operation, and a ‘Carlo’ style weapon, an M16, explosives, and multiple magazines and ammunition were found.
