The dramatic escape of 6 Palestinian prisoners from the Gilboa jail is making headlines. The inmates escaped the high-security Israeli jail through a tunnel on September 6. Israeli prison officials termed the incident to be the biggest Palestinian jailbreak in 23 years.
A huge manhunt was launched to find the six Palestinian prisoners who escaped the Israeli jail. However, hundreds of cops and soldiers at dozens of roadblocks have failed to nab the escaped prisoners.
The fugitives are assessed to be in West Bank city of Jenin, or Jordan
The manhunt to find six Palestinian militants who escaped from Gilboa prison continues for a fourth day, as security forces’ search efforts are yet to yield anything.
Military, police, and intelligence service units are mobilized, with dozens of roadblocks deployed across the country to reduce the fugitives’ freedom of movement.

Why is it important to you whether they murdered, or colluded in murdering, one Israeli or dozens? If it was one of your beloved family members or friends that they aided and abetted in killing would you still be “curious”?
I think it would be fairly safe to believe that they aren’t in there for traffic violations…
