“Hours after the murder in Otniel, terrorists went on a ruthless terror attack in Paris and murdered innocents”, he said.

“The cooperation is ongoing, but in accordance with the prime minister’s directive, intelligence material relevant to what happened has been relayed, and we will also deepen the cooperation”, Intelligence Minister Yisrael Katz told reporters. “We are not responsible for the terror that is turned against us, just like the French aren’t responsible for the terror turned against them”.

Israel’s Army Radio reported Sunday that a few intelligence may have come from Israel’s surveillance of Syria and Iraq, two strongholds of the Islamic State terrorist group that claimed responsibility for the Paris attacks.
