DEBKAfile was founded by a team of journalists in June 2000 as an independent Internet Web site, providing an intelligence and security news service. January 5, 2016, 12:37 PM (IDT)
Ahmad Hatib, a 20-year-old Palestinian from the Isawiya neighborhood of Jerusalem who told his family on Tuesday that he was going to carry out an attack in Herzliya, was identified and subdued by citizens in Herzliya who recognized him from a picture released by the media, and then held Hatib until the police arrived to arrest him . Hatib had also burst through a police roadblock in Jerusalem while driving to the resort city north of Tel Aviv.
