Galilee Assassination Squad Busted: Three Arrested
Three alleged members of an assassination squad were arrested in the Galilee region of Israel on Saturday, August 2, 2025. The suspects, residents of the Arab towns of Deir al-Assad and Arabah, were apprehended while allegedly en route to carry out a violent crime near Deir al-Asad.
Israeli police identified the group as an “assassination squad,” highlighting the serious nature of the planned attack. The arrests underscore the ongoing security concerns in the region.
The investigation is ongoing, with authorities focusing on uncovering the full extent of the squad’s operations and potential links to other criminal networks.
This incident raises serious questions about the security situation in the Galilee and the potential for further escalations of violence. The swift action by Israeli police, however, prevented what could have been a devastating attack. The long-term implications for regional stability remain a pressing concern.
