Police and agents of the Shin Beit security service raided several homes in settlement outposts in the West Bank early Sunday morning and detained at least nine people, police said.
One of the outposts targeted was Adei Ad, part of the Shiloh bloc of settlements. The outpost lies several kilometers from the Palestinian village of Duma, the scene of a firebombing on July 31 that killed a Palestinian infant and his father. The attack is believed to have been carried out by Jewish extremists.
The far-right legal aid organization Honenu said that in another raid Kohav Hashahar settlement and the nearby Givat Habaladim outpost, also in the region of Duma, seven people were detained by security forces.
