Israeli Border Police on Sunday arrested Fatah militant Fares Mansour - a member of the Al-Aqsa Martyrs' Brigades who had been pardoned by Israel two months ago in a deal with the Palestinian Authority - on suspicion that he had resumed militant activity. Mansour had signed an affidavit renouncing terror acts, however he was suspected of involvement in shooting attacks on Israel Defense Forces troops. Explosives, a rifle and a handgun were found in his home.
