The IDF's operation "Hot Winter", aimed at destroying the terrorist infrastructure in the town of Hebron, continued Friday with the demolition of two terrorist's houses and the arrest of several wanted men.
One house blown up belonged to Mahmoud Amran, a Tanzim terrorist who two years ago shot infant Shalhevet Pass to death.
The IDF claimed the other house belonged to Rifat Halil, a Hamas man who blew himself up on the way to commit a suicide attack on a Tel-Aviv restaurant, reports Army Radio.
Seven men wanted by the security forces were arrested in Hebron.
IDF sources told the media only a prolonged stay of large forces in the town could enable the apprehension of men at the top of the IDF's most wanted list. Seven wanted men have been arrested in the town so far.
