An Israeli Army force has arrested the commander of Islamic Jihad in the West Bank city of Nablus. On Thursday, combat units captured Mohammed Kitaneh in a hideout in Nablus. "Kitaneh has been transferred to the custody of the General Security Service for questioning," an Israeli military statement said. Kitaneh was deemed a leading commander of Jihad in the West Bank. Israeli and Palestinian sources said Kitaneh was responsible for recruiting and equipping suicide bombers for attacks in Israel. "He was planning an imminent suicide bombing," an Israeli source said.
