The manhunt is intense.
Six prisoners from one cell managed to escape from the ultra-secure Gilboa prison in northern Israel, where hundreds of Palestinian activists are held.
They used a large network of pipes and empty spaces to end up, at the end of an underground passage, outside the penitentiary.
There, an accomplice was waiting for them in a vehicle.

Its discovery was noted during a count.
An Israeli prison official described the breach as
