Gilboa
prison is considered to be one of Israel's most secure prisons. Four of the men
who escaped were serving life sentences. Five out of six prisoners belong to
the Islamic Jihad Movement, and the sixth belongs to the Al-Aqsa Martyrs'
Brigades, according to The Hebrew newspaper Haaretz. The escape is believed to
have been aided by outside forces through smuggled cellphones.
The
prisoners who escaped are: Mahmoud Abdullah Ardah, Yacoub Qasem, Yacoub Mahmoud
Qadri, Ayham Nayef Kamamji, Zakariye
Zubeidi, and Monadel Yacoub Nafeat.
The
occupation prison service commander reported that the escape appeared through
excavating a 10 meter tunnel in recent months with outside help. Al-Jazeera
News shared that the tunnel was excavated from under the toilet in the
prisoner's cells.
According
to Haaretz, the attention of Israeli occupation security authorities is focused
on attempting to relocate the prisoners out of the fear that they will try to
carry out attacks or try to escape across the Jordanian border.
