Three suspects were apprehended for the murder of 17-year-old Rina Shnerb in the terrorist attack near Dolev several weeks ago, the Shin Bet security agency said on Saturday.

The terrorists behind a deadly West Bank bombing attack last month killed Shnerb with an improvised explosive device when she visited a spring near Dolev in the Binyamin Regional Council with her father and brother, who were injured in the attack.

The perpetrators, who apparently set off the device using a remote mechanism while observing the area from afar, were arrested Saturday evening.

The Shin Bet identified the three suspects in a statement released to the press: Samar Mina Salim Arbid, 44, of Ramallah; Kassam Al Karim Ragah Shabli, 25, from the West Bank village of Kfar Kobar; and 25-year-old Ramallah resident Yazan Hussein Hassani Magmas.

According to Israel's security services, Arbid is a senior official in the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine and has a long criminal history, including several arrests for making bombs and other terror-related activities during the Second Intifada (Palestinian uprising).

Believed to be the ringleader and the one responsible for detonating the explosive device that ultimately killed Rina Shnerb, Arbid was taken to a hospital following an interrogation by the Shin Bet, his attorney said hours after the arrest.

The Shin Bet confirmed that he received medical care because he did not feel well after his interrogation, but did not elaborate on his condition.

At the time, the Gaza-based terror organization Hamas called the attack "proof of the vitality of our people, heroism and resilience in the face of the crimes and terrorism of the occupation."
