Israeli secret services announced that they had dismantled a terrorist cell made up of Israeli Arabs and Palestinians. She planned to assassinate the minister of national security, a member of the Israeli extreme right.

The 11 suspects, arrested this week, were also planning attacks on IDF bases and planning to capture Israeli soldiers. Ben Gvir has been targeted by several assassination attempts in recent years. The latest took place before the massacre of October 7, in September 2023. A terrorist cell, remotely controlled by Iran, had already been dismantled.
