Israeli security forces conducted a complex operation to apprehend Moein al-Arabbad, head of Hamas’s Shin Bet intelligence division, in the West Bank. The operation involved undercover surveillance vehicles disguised as agricultural transport and was conducted over multiple days with detailed intelligence preparation.

According to newly disclosed details from Gaza-based sources, the operation involved a two-day positioning phase, forced entry into a location, an armed confrontation, and tactical withdrawal. Security forces identified al-Arabbad’s vulnerability and executed the arrest despite encountering resistance from his family members at the scene.

The arrest represents a significant intelligence and security achievement against Hamas’s internal security apparatus. Al-Arabbad was injured during the operation and is currently in Israeli custody.
