An ISIS cell that trained in the forests near Galilee while plotting to attack Israeli police and military facilities -- as well as liquor stores -- was shattered by the intelligence agents in what experts say is the first known case of the black-clad terrorist army operating within the Jewish state, sources told FoxNews.com Thursday.

Seven Israeli Arabs, including one already serving time in prison, were charged in Nazareth for the alleged roles in the plot, which was foiled by the Shin Bet, Israel’s internal intelligence agency, in a joint operation with the northern division of the Israeli police. The case, which broke last month but has only now been revealed, is viewed as significant in Israel because, although as many as 40 Israeli Muslims are believed to have joined ISIS in recent years, this is believed to be the first ISIS operation planned inside Israel itself. The Shin Bet published details of the case on its website, listing details of the plot as well as information gleaned from the suspects.

“During the interrogation by Shin Bet, the suspects admitted that during the last year they had been working to get weapons, train with them, and collect intelligence around an IDF base and police forces, and all of this in order to commit attacks under the flag of the Islamic State,” the report stated.

Two of the suspects maintained Internet contact with friends who had gone to Syria in November and are now fighting with the Islamic State in Iraq, according to officials. During their interrogation, the two suspects said the ISIS operatives had convinced them to mount attacks, officials said. Training with a third man in forests close to their Galilee village of Yafia, they scouted police units in northern Israel, as well as a nearby army base. The suspects also revealed plans to attack liquor stores in Nazareth, resenting the consumption of alcohol which is forbidden under Islamic law.

The Shin Bet report also noted that critical information was recovered from one suspect's cellphone, including photos of ISIS combatants and weapons and a video demonstration of how to slit a throat. Two men who supplied them weapons were also among those charged. Another suspect charged in the case is a 26-year-old currently serving life in an Israeli prison for the murder of a taxi driver in 2009. He is accused of helping to coordinate the attacks by phone and through intermediaries. Read more at Fox News
