The two main Palestinian terrorists behind the kidnapping and murder of three Israeli youth in June were found and killed by Israeli security forces, Israeli officials announced Tuesday morning.

Marwan Kawasme, 29, and Amer Abu Aysha, 32, were both killed in a firefight during their attempted arrest by Israeli authorities near Hebron. The sting operation to arrest the two terrorists occurred in the overnight hours between Monday and Tuesday, the IDF confirmed.

“We opened fire, they returned fire and they were killed in the exchange,” IDF Spokesman Lt. Col. Peter Lerner said. “We have visual confirmation for one. The second one, we have no visual confirmation, but the assumption is he was killed.”

A Hamas’ spokesperson, Hussam Barduan, confirmed the killings, saying “Two members of the Izz ad-Din al-Qassam Brigades, Amer Abu Aysha and Marwan Kawasme, were killed after a long life of sacrifice and giving. This is the way of the resistance and we follow in its wake step after step.”

The operation was carried out by a joint task force comprised of the army, Shin Bet and troops from the Yarman police counter-terrorism unit. The Shin Bet said that they received information that led security officials to the hiding places of the two Hamas terrorists.

At approximately 3 am, security forces surrounded the home where the two terrorists were believed to be hiding. A firefight broke out in which Kawasme and Abu Aysha were killed. A bulldozer was used to destroy the home with the terrorists still in it.

Channel 10 reported that over the last several weeks, the two terrorists have eluded capture on several occasions.

“We have been pursuing these two since the abduction,” said Judea and Samaria Division Commander Brig. Gen. Tamir Yadai. “Last night the investigation ripened as regards to their location and we have been surrounding the place where they have been hiding since 1 am. We killed them and there are arrests of several other collaborators.”

According to Yadai, the IDF began to apply the “pressure cooker protocol on the house. The two terrorists are believed to have been staying in the location where they were killed for the last few days. Weapons like M-16’s, a Kalashnikov and handguns belonging to the terrorists were found by security forces.

Both Kawasme and Abu Aysha have deep ties to the Hamas terrorist organization. Hamas initially denied any involvement in the kidnapping and murder of Eyal Yifrach, 19, Gilad Shaar, 16, and Naftali Frenkel, 16. However, last month, the terror group revealed that the entirety of the terrorist attack was masterminded by Hamas leaders.

The bodies of the three youth were found partially buried in a field outside Hebron three weeks after their abduction from a hitchhiking post in Judea.

Kawasme’s brother Hussam was arrested on July 11 by the Shin Bet for his involvement in the plot. Under interrogation it was revealed that Hussam was one of the masterminds of the operation, including planning the attack and buying the plot of land where the bodies were found ahead of time. Hamas’s military wing, the Al-Qassam Brigades, transferred funds from Gaza and abroad to the terrorists to carry out the attack.

In total, eight Hamas terrorists have been arrested by Israeli security services in connection with the attack.

Criminal Who Planned Kidnapping Of Three Israeli Teens Has Been Arrested.

Israel Arrests Mastermind Behind Attack that Killed 3 Teens

“Whoever digs a pit will fall into it, and a stone will come back on him who starts it rolling.” (Proverbs 26:27)

(L-R) Eyal Yifrach, 19, Naftali Fraenkel, 16, and Gil-ad Shaar, 16.

Israel has cleared for publication that it has recently arrested the ringleader of the terror cell responsible for the kidnapping and murder of three Israeli youth in June.

The three teens – Naftali Frenkel, 16; Gilad Shaar, 16; and Eyal Yifrach, 19 – were kidnapped from a hitchhiking post near Hebron on June 12 and shortly after murdered by terrorists. Their disappearance set off a two week, country wide man-hunt.

The disappearance of the boys set off tensions between Israel and the Palestinians. The news of the arrest comes after two months of conflict between Israel and Palestinians in Gaza, Judea and Samaria.

Hussam Kawasme, who was born in Hebron, was arrested in the East Jerusalem neighborhood of Shufat. Under interrogation, Kawasme admitted to planning the attack.

Intelligence officials believe that Kawasme is the man who telephoned the two kidnappers, Marwan Kawasme and Amer Abu Aysha, after the abduction and murder of the three youth.

An emergency call placed by one of the teens before his death recorded part of the call between Kawasme and the kidnappers, who celebrated the death of the youth.

The two Hamas terrorists who carried out the attack disappeared from their homes the night of the attack. They both still remain at large.

Israel Violence Escalates Significantly.

Violence in Israel at Highest Level since Intifada

Israelis, while suffering the worst upsurge in violence since the Second Intifada, are also reeling from the news that six Jewish nationalists, including three minors, are suspects in the barbaric murder of Palestinian Arab teenager Mohammed Abu Khdeir.

Violence in Israel has increased dramatically over the past week all over the country since the discovery on Monday of the bodies of three Israeli boys who were kidnapped and shot to death by Hamas terrorists and the subsequent murder of a Palestinian Arab teen who was savagely burned to death.

On Tuesday last week, close to 100 demonstrators in central Jerusalem called for revenge for the murder of three Jewish boys. The event became violent and resulted in several arrests.

Palestinian Arabs Call for Third Intifada

Calls for a new Intifada pervaded the funeral on Friday for Abu Khdeir, which took place in the eastern Jerusalem neighborhood of Shuafat, known for its anti-Israel activism.

Since Abu Khdeir’s death, forest fires caused by arson have erupted throughout the country. Palestinian hooligans did millions of dollars’ worth of damage to the Jerusalem light rail stations in their neighborhoods, which could take months to repair – ironically, as the transportation system was established for their benefit.

Violence in Jerusalem’s Arab districts swept into Jewish areas over the Sabbath, including an attack on a yeshiva on Mount Zion. Jewish residents of mixed neighborhoods, such as the Mount of Olives, remained indoors.

A local tour guide told United with Israel that he was scheduled to lead two excursions in the Old City on Sunday morning but both were cancelled by the fearful tourists.

Residents in the South Confined to Shelters

While the brutal deaths of three Jewish teens and a 15-year-old Palestinian Arab are tragic, the reaction of mainstream Israelis and lawmakers versus that in Palestinian society is as different as night and day. Palestinians were celebrating the kidnapping of Israeli teens, while Israelis were calling for the arrest of anyone, Jew or Arab, who commits violence against innocent civilians.

During the search for Eyal Yifrach, Gilad Sha’ar and Naftali Frankel, the Palestinian street was celebrating. At schools and summer camps, Palestinian youth were demonstrating a three-fingered salute, representing three captured Israeli teens whom they compared to rodents and had hoped to exchange for a large number of terrorists in Israeli jails.

Palestinian Human Rights Activist Defends Kidnapping

Prominent Palestinian human-rights activist and political analyst Bassem Eid, speaking to journalists in Jerusalem last Wednesday, conceded that Palestinians, including “moderate” Palestinians, were pleased about the kidnapping, although, he said, they were “sorry” about the murder, which “wasn’t the target.”

According to Eid, Palestinians in the West Bank were hoping the three boys would be traded for Palestinian prisoners. Asked whether they saw any difference between innocent schoolchildren being held captive and violent terrorists with blood on their hands, he acknowledged that indeed they did not differentiate between them.

“It’s no different than the IDF shooting at Palestinian teenagers,” he responded, although, as UWI pointed out, the Israeli children were on their way home from school while the Palestinian teens shot – allegedly – by the IDF would have been throwing rocks or committing some form of aggression against soldiers or civilians.

Nor do the Palestinians differentiate between civilian residents of Judea and Samaria and soldiers, Eid added.

Israel Condemns Violence against both Jews and Arabs

Meanwhile, Israeli politicians and human-rights activists have expressed horror at any incitement or violence instigated on the Israeli side. An investigation was launched immediately following the news of Abu Khdeir’s death, with Prime Minister Netanyahu condemning the murder in the strongest terms and vowing to find the perpetrators and bring them to justice.

The suspects are being questioned at an Israeli Security Agency (Shin Bet) facility. All other details regarding the investigation are under a judicial gag order.

“We will not sweep this under the rug,” President Shimon Peres stated. “The culprits will be caught and punished to the full extent of the law. There is no difference between [Arab] blood and [Israeli] blood.”

“‘There is no peace,’ says the Lord, ‘for the wicked.’” (Isaiah 48:22)

Israelis visit the graves of Eyal Yifrach, Gilad Sha’ar and Naftali Fraenkel, a day after their funeral, at the cemetery in the central Israeli town of Modi’in. The bodies of the three young Jewish teenagers who had been missing since June 12 when they were hitchhiking in the West Bank, were found 2 days ago in a field north of the West Bank town of Hebron.

IDF soldiers arrested on Saturday a former member of Hamas who is believed to be an accomplice to the two terrorist murderers responsible for the kidnapping and killing of three Israeli teenagers on June 12.

Husam Dofsh, who was arrested in Hebron, was reported missing from his home since the night of the abduction. Israeli intelligence officials released Dofsh’s name and picture on Friday to the public.

Shortly after the information was released, Dofsh called the Walla! news desk and claimed that he was in his home and had no connection with the kidnappings. Forces apprehended Dofsh at a coffee shop in Hebron soon after the call. He was reportedly watching the World Cup.

The IDF raided Dofsh’s family home several times since the kidnappings and notified the family that he was wanted for questioning. Despite knowing he was wanted by the IDF, Dofsh was never at home during the raids and refused to turn himself in.

“I did not turn myself in because I did not do anything wrong,” Dofsh reportedly stated after his arrest. “I saw online, and people also told me, that I was tied to the mess, but I did not kidnap and didn’t anything. I just want to continue my life.”

Dofsh has deep ties with the Hamas terror organization. In 2008 he was sentenced to four years in prison on terrorism related charges. Two of Dufash’s family members are known to have been involved with terror attacks and attempts. In 2003, one of his family members, Jihad Dufash, was killed in what Hamas calls a “work accident” while working in a hidden explosives lab in Hebron.

The two main suspects behind the murders, Marwan Kawasmeh and Amar Abu-Eisha, have been missing from their homes in Hebron since the kidnappings took place. The IDF has set out on a massive manhunt to track down and arrest the two perpetrators.

Investigators last week revealed that Kawasmeh and Abu-Eisha purposely left behind this phones and prepared food caches in their homes on the night of the kidnappings. Each suspect opened a new bank account under the name of their wives right before the abductions took place.

A recording released by the Shin Bet of a last-minute effort by one of the teens to alert authorities of their kidnapping reveals how the two abductors cheered over their murder of the teens.

In the recording, one of them is heard relating over the phone their deed, cluing in Israeli investigators to an outside accomplice.

One of the kidnappers is heard shouting “Three!” in Arabic as he and his accomplice sing and cheer happily.

Response By The World To The Murder Of The Three Teens Is Tepid Compared To The Condemnation Of Israel Of Its Retaliation To Rocket Attacks.

Peace Be Upon the Boys, No Peace for Palestinian Terrorists

Author and columnist Ruthie Blum demands that there be no rest for societies that breed terror. This opinion piece first appeared in ‘Israel Hayom‘.

The discovery on Monday of the dead bodies of Israeli teens Eyal Yifrach, Naftali Frankel and Gilad Sha’ar sent shock waves across the country. In spite of a growing sense of doom — due to the fact that their Hamas captors had not come forth with demands, and extensive searches were coming up empty — there was nevertheless a ray of hope that the boys were still alive.

Fresh in the public’s mind was the 2006 abduction of Israeli soldier Gilad Schalit, who spent five years in Hamas captivity until being released in exchange for 1,027 terrorists. Based on this experience, much discussion following the June 12 kidnapping of the three teenagers was devoted to the question of how to handle the current situation better. In other words, there was an assumption that Israel’s biggest dilemma was going to be whether to launch a rescue operation or negotiate for the boys’ release.

It is thus that the news of their cold-blooded murder and subsequent burial in a hole in the ground was not only tragic and enraging; it also came as somewhat of a surprise.

What came as no surprise at all, however, was the response of the Palestinian Authority, Hamas and the socalled “international community.”

Residents of the PA attacked the ambulance transporting the bodies of Eyal, Naftali and Gilad out of the area near Hebron where they were found. The mob expressed its sentiment about the boys by hurling epithets, rocks and paint at the vehicle, smashing its windshield.

Palestinian Authority Appeals for Help to Prevent Israeli Retaliation

PA President Mahmoud Abbas — who had been lauded publicly by the Israeli government (and by Naftali Frankel’s mother, Rachel) for his assistance in the search for the boys and their kidnappers — immediately appealed to the United States and Europe to prevent Israel from retaliating militarily.

Hamas thumbed its nose at Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s statement that “Hamas is responsible and Hamas will pay” for the premeditated slaughter of the teens. Its senior spokesman, Sami Abu Zuhri, wrote on Facebook: “Netanyahu … must understand his threats do not terrify us. If he launched a war against Gaza, the gates of hell would be open on him.”

Kidnapped Israeli teenagers depicted as rodents by Palestinian media.

U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moonissued a statement condemning “the deliberate killing of civilians,” calling the murder of the boys a “heinous act by enemies of peace [that] aims to further entrench division and distrust and to widen the conflict.”

The Vatican called it a “hideous and unacceptable crime” and an “obstacle to peace.”

U.S. State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki managed to condemn the murders without actually acknowledging them as such.

“The harm that has been done to these teenagers is a tragedy,” she told reporters. When asked whether the U.S. was calling for “restraint,” she answered, “It certainly does.”

President Barack Obama echoed this message in a statement.

“The United States condemns in the strongest possible terms this senseless act of terror against innocent youth,” he said. “From the outset, I have offered our full support to Israel and the Palestinian Authority to find the perpetrators of this crime and bring them to justice, and I encourage Israel and the Palestinian Authority to continue working together in that effort. I also urge all parties to refrain from steps that could further destabilize the situation.”

As was to be expected, everybody’s main concern is that Israel will do what is necessary to defeat those who aggress against it. That the Arabs in Gaza and the PA wish to keep the “Zionist enemy” and “occupation forces” at bay is at least understandable.

After all, since Monday night, the Israeli Air Force has been striking dozens of terrorist targets throughout Gaza.

US President Barack Obama urges restraint “on both sides.”

And though Netanyahu’s emergency meeting with the Diplomatic-Security Cabinet ended just after midnight with no final decision on how to respond to the murder of the boys, Abbas and his new Hamas partners undoubtedly realize that even their patsies in Washington and Brussels may not be able to serve as their buffer in this instance.

But it never ceases to boggle the mind that Western countries consider Israel to be a greater threat to “stability” than the Arabs who seek its destruction. Nor does it cease to amaze that the hackneyed phrase “enemies of peace” is still being used to refer to state-backed terrorists. They are not enemies of peace. They are enemies of Israel.

When the autopsies of Eyal, Naftali and Gilad are complete and the innocent teenagers can be buried — this time properly, with their grieving family and friends there to pray and mourn — Israel must be determined not to let the societies that bred their killers ever rest in peace.
