The terrorist Zakaria Zabeidi, among the fugitives, asked the prison's intelligence officer to move for one night to cell number 5 in Wing 2, from which they fled.
In 2014, three of the terrorists defined as "high risk of escape" were involved in digging a tunnel at Shata Prison.
The prisoners tried to plan an escape by digging a tunnel under the facility, which was about half a meter in diameter and about four meters deep.
