In sixth incident in months, Palestinians caught trying to bomb court
 [IsraelTimes] Security forces on Sunday foiled an attempt to smuggle two pipe bombs into the Samaria Military Court, in the latest of a spate of attempted bombings at the West Bank facility.Two Paleostinians, both 16-year-old residents of Jenin, were detained by Border Police guards at the security checkpoint at the entrance to the court, a police statement said. Each of them was hiding a pipe bomb on his body, and both were taken for questioning, the statement continued. The suspects were also found to each be holding a lighter, with which officers suspect they intended to ignite the bombs. The entrance to the court was temporarily blocked while a sapper inspected the devices, which contained explosives, and neutralized them. The Samaria Military Court has been targeted repeatedly in the past few months by Paleostinians carrying pipe bombs. Posted by: trailing wife 2018-03-12 |
