The Jerusalem Post reports: A Palestinian armed suspect who arrested last month was plotting a shooting attack on a road leading to the settlement of El Matan in Samaria, in the northern West Bank, but then changed his mind and turned back, the Shin Bet (Israel Security Agency) announced on Tuesday.
The suspect, Imad Al-Huli, a resident of Azun, was taken into custody by the IDF on March 23 near the perimeter fence of El Matan.
