The paper said Prime Minister Ehud Barak received an intelligence report over the weekend about the infiltration. Deputy Defense Minister Ephraim Sneh said there was “less than” concrete information about the cells, but he stressed that more than one organization is interested in carrying out attacks in the heart of Israel.
