British authorities have arrested Abu Wadi, a Palestinian in his 30s from Khan Younis, after he arrived in the UK illegally via the English Channel and by means of a wooden boat, the British Telegraph reported. According to the report, Wadi was armed, and had previously called for "slaughtering all Jews". It was also reported that he belonged to an extremist group in the Gaza Strip, which used to regularly throw burning tires and stones at IDF soldiers near the border before the outbreak of the war.
