NBC/AP: Six Palestinian prisoners on the run after breaking out of high-security Israeli jail
The prisoners reportedly escaped through a tunnel in what Prime Minister Naftali Bennett called a “grave incident.”
TEL AVIV, Israel — Israeli forces on Monday launched a massive manhunt in northern Israel and the occupied West Bank after six Palestinian prisoners escaped overnight from a high-security facility in an extremely rare breakout.
Officials said they have erected roadblocks and are conducting patrols in the area. Israel's Army Radio also said 400 prisoners are being moved as a protective measure against any additional escape attempts.
The radio said the prisoners escaped through a tunnel from the Gilboa prison, which is supposed to be one of Israel's most secure facilities. The men reportedly appeared to have received some outside help.
