Palestinian whose name appears on terror watchlist captured at southern border
APalestinian migrant whose name appears on a terror watchlist for allegedly previously using “explosives/firearms” was caught at the southern border Monday, The Post can exclusively reveal.
Border Patrol agents caught Omar Shehada, 35, at the border in Santa Teresa, New Mexico, according to a leaked memo obtained by The Post.
The arrest of Shehada — who hails from the West Bank — comes just weeks after three other suspected Palestinian terrorists were caught at the California border.
One of those suspects allegedly had “salacious photos” on their phone — including a picture of a masked man holding an AK-47 rifle, sources told The Post.
It also comes almost a year after Border Patrol sent out a memo to its agents warning about Palestinian terrorists potentially coming across the border following the Oct. 7 terror attack.
