Manhunt underway after palestinians escape prison

In the early hours of Monday, Zakaria Zubeidi, a former commander of the Palestinian resistance group al-Aqsa MartyrsвЂ™ Brigade in Jenin, and five members of the Islamic Jihad group managed to tunnel their way out through their cellвЂ™s drainage system to escape from the maximum-security jail Gilboa.

Palestinian prisoners escaped high-security Israeli prison using rusty spoons! Six Palestinian prisoners have successfully escaped a high-security Israeli prison through digging a tunnel! The very fact that six Palestinian captives have been able to escape a вЂњhigh-securityвЂќ Israeli prison using their rusty spoons has put the credibility of the Israeli army under serious questions. Other relatives of the six Palestinian escapees, all from the Jenin area, were arrested on Wednesday and are currently in detention, with a massive manhunt by the regimeвЂ™s forces being underway in the occupied territories. вЂњThe soldiers also barged their way into Bir al-Basha village, where they re-arrested two cousins of Yaqoub Mahmoud Qadri, 49, one of the six escapees,вЂќ it added. вЂњWhile in the town, the Israeli soldiers ransacked many houses belonging to the close relatives of Mahmoud Ardah, one of the six escapees, turning them topsy-turvy, and detained ArdahвЂ™s sister, Bassema, and brothers, Raed and Muhammad,вЂќ Wafa said. Local sources and Palestine PrisonerвЂ™s Society were cited by the official Wafa news agency as saying on Friday that two brothers and a sister of suspected mastermind Mahmud Ardah had been detained near the city of Jenin in the northern West Bank. Israeli forces in the occupied West Bank have arrested more relatives of the six Palestinians that recently managed to escape from the regimeвЂ™s highly-fortified Gilboa prison.
