A statement from the extremist “Gilad Shalhevet Brigades” claims that it has kidnapped two Palestinians. The group’ statement was simple: “For your information, a few minutes ago we kidnapped two Palestinian workers in the Jerusalem area. The two are being held in a hidden location and we will conduct negotiation for their release through the media. We demand the immediate release of the kidnapped (Israeli) soldiers; if they will not be released within the next 48 hours, the lives of the Palestinians will be in danger.”
