The Israel Security Agency (Shin Bet) said on Monday it uncovered a Hamas terror network in Judea and Samaria that was directed by a Hamas operative based in Turkey.

The cell was allegedly overseen by Mahmoud Radwan, a Hamas member released in a 2025 prisoner exchange and deported to Turkey after serving a prison term in Israel for his role in the 2001 murder of Yossi Alfasi.
