Jenin, Nov 24: The Israeli army today surrounded a mosque at tubas, in the northern west bank, where a Palestinian militant was believed to be holed up, witnesses said. The troops used loudspeakers to call on Mohammed al-Qilani, of the radical Islamic Jihad Movement, to give himself up, they added.
Tubas was under its third day of a curfew imposed when the army launched a new crackdown in the west bank following a deadly suicide attack on a bus in West Jerusalem on Thursday. Bureau Report
