Assassination attempt

Allen's lawyers raised concerns that he was placed on suicide watch despite showing no suicidal tendencies during a health evaluation and was housed in a padded cell for 23 hours a day.

Allen was assigned a "safe cell," described as a padded room with 24-hour lockdown procedures.

US Magistrate Judge Matthew Sharbaugh ordered Allen detained while the case moves forward. Sharbaugh scheduled another hearing over Allen's continued detention for Thursday. 

The 22-year-old suspect was tasked with gathering intelligence, including photographing the Haifa port and missile impact sites in northern Israel.

Before the assassination was confirmed, two sources gave The Jerusalem Post different indications on the likelihood of the success of the operation, which took place Tuesday night.
