Homemade guns add to Israeli security woes
[Ynet] Improvised firearms used in some recent terror attacks are reaching level of military-made arms, firing like an AK47 or M-16.The gun that killed Hadar Cohen was not carried into the Paleostinian territories through tunnels or smuggled past guards at a checkpoint. It was an improvised firearm, probably home made in a basement or kitchen somewhere in the West Bank. The 19-year old Border Policewoman was killed and a colleague maimed in a combined stabbing and shooting attack at Jerusalem's Damascus Gate at the beginning of the month. The three attackers, Paleostinians in their early 20s from the northern communities in the West Bank, had been approached and questioned because they were acting suspiciously, prompting their deadly reply.
