On Sunday evening, the Israeli occupation forces arrested the father and mother of the perpetrator of the shooting, Ammar Amin al-Najjar, near Bethlehem.

According to local sources, those forces stormed the Abu Kteila area in Hebron, raided the house of the prisoner Ammar Amin al-Najjar (27 years old), and arrested his father and mother, after searching the house and tampering with its contents, and handed his siblings communications to meet with its intelligence.

The Israeli occupation had announced the name of the perpetrator of the operation, Ammar Amin al-Najjar, indicating that a force from the Dovdovan unit had arrested him from a mosque in the center of Bethlehem.

The Hebrew Channel 12 reporter stated that he is a Hamas activist, noting that he declared his allegiance to the Al-Qassam Brigades hours before carrying out the attack through his social media accounts.

He indicated that he was arrested after the security cameras tracked the area where the operation took place and his route until he left his vehicle in an area close to the mosque from which he was arrested.
