IDF and Shin Bet Reportedly Probe Hamas-in-Turkey Link to Judea Junction Attack

The IDF and Shin Bet are reportedly examining whether Hamas personnel based in Turkey helped organize Friday’s shooting attack near Judea Junction in the Hebron area. Investigators are also considering local direction or action by the attackers without outside organizers, and the reported Turkey connection has not been established. Shin Bet is leading the inquiry into possible links between the two attackers and organizers outside the area. The investigation is seeking to identify who sent the attackers and what target they intended to strike.
