Israeli security services successfully foiled a planned bomb attack on the Azrieli Mall in Tel Aviv, as reported on Thursday. The group behind the thwarted attack is believed to have ties to ISIS.
According to a joint statement by Israel Police and the Israeli Security Agency (ISA), the plot was orchestrated by five individuals from the city of Tayibe, located north of Tel Aviv and in close proximity to the West Bank. The group had been actively planning the attack for several weeks.
