Meet some of the world’s worst people. Terrorists that Israel is releasing in order to secure the release of our family members, kidnapped from their homes or from a music festival:
This is Iyad Abu al-Rub.
A senior commander of Palestinian Islamic Jihad in Jenin, he served as the head of the group’s
military wing during the Second Intifada. He was convicted for orchestrating a series of deadly
suicide bombings in Israel that killed at least seven people between 2003 and 2005, including:
🔴 A suicide bombing in Sde Trumot near Beit She’an (June 19, 2003)
🔴 A suicide bombing at the Hadera market (October 26, 2005)
He was also charged with planning additional suicide attacks — including one from a school in
Yokne’am — and with opening fire on IDF forces on multiple occasions.
Today, he was released as part of the hostage deal.
