The Shin Bet and IDF arrested a 16-year-old Palestinian in Lod on Friday who is suspected of planning on carrying out a terror attack.
According to intelligence from Shin Bet and the IDF, the teenager, whose name is Muhammad Nasser Sawalma, was motivated to plan the attack as revenge for activity of Israeli security forces in Nablus in recent weeks.
The suspect is a resident of the Balata refugee camp in the West Bank, and has no affiliation to any organization, according to intelligence information, and was found to be in Lod without a residence permit.
He was handed over to the Shin Bet for further investigation.
