New details about the operation to capture the terrorists: After the operation to capture the six prisoners who escaped from Gilboa Prison was completed last night (Sunday) and the last two prisoners - Iham Kamamji and Monadel Nafi'at - were captured in Jenin, 12 new details about the operation that led to their capture are being revealed on Hadashot.

The footage, published by Al-Hadayda 12, shows two of the terrorists with bags on their backs walking together in the village of Na'ura, a few kilometers north of Gilboa Prison, from which they escaped only about 3 hours earlier. The two, who had previously been at a nearby mosque, were filmed walking toward a car in which they apparently managed to reach the Mount of Leap in Nazareth - where the first two prisoners were captured, 5 days after the escape. The IDF released aerial photographs this evening documenting the operation to capture the two prisoners last night in Jenin. The photos show the two prisoners trying to escape through the roof of the building. The aerial photographs also documented attempts by Palestinians to block the route of the force that entered Jenin, in order to capture the terrorists, and the gathering of Palestinian vehicles near the forces. After the prisoners' efforts to escape failed and they were captured, the forces' departure from the city is documented. The question that remains open: Why did one of the prisoners leave the refugee camp - and move to the house where he was captured in eastern Jenin? One of the prisoners captured last night in Jenin had been in the Jenin refugee camp until last night - the safest place for him, where he was protected by dozens of armed residents, but somehow he was persuaded to leave there and go to the same building in the east of the city where he was eventually captured with his escape partner. The YAM fighters had no idea that the two escaping prisoners were staying in the building around which they were being held. About 10 minutes to fifteen minutes before they began their operation, they believed that only one prisoner was staying in the building - and that the other prisoner was staying in Israeli territory. According to Palestinian sources, the person who led one or both of the prisoners to the house where they were eventually captured was a resident of the Jenin refugee camp. The person who hid them in his house was Fatah member Abd al-Rahman Abu Ja'far, whose brother was killed during the second intifada. Less than an hour after the two prisoners arrived at the same house, forces from the YMM and IDF had already surrounded it - and a short time later, they were captured. Earlier today, the lawyer for Iham Kamamji and Monadel Nafi'at revealed additional details about the terrorists' escape. The two told the lawyer that they arrived in Afula two days after the escape and hid in the bushes. They claim that a force of soldiers stood very close to them and did not notice them. According to the lawyer, the IDF shot at them twice during the hunt – once when they were in Afula and again when Iham arrived at the Jenin refugee camp, on the third day after escaping from prison. Mondal said he joined him three days later. Iham claimed to his lawyer that he stayed in the refugee camp until last night, when he went out to the eastern neighborhood of Jenin – where the two were captured. According to him, security forces arrived about fifteen minutes after they entered the house. Two accomplices were captured along with the terrorists – both Fatah members.
