Israel’s Shin Bet security services prevented more than 1,000 terror attacks in the last year, according to a report by director Nadav Argaman to the Knesset Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee.
“We’ve thwarted 480 terror attacks, arrested 219 Hamas cells and 590 lone attackers,” Argaman told the committee on Tuesday.
The briefing took place as news surfaced that Israel and Hamas have reached a three-year ceasefire. Argaman has reportedly served as the primary liaison between Israel and the Palestinian Authority, which is not officially a partner to the agreement.
