A female Palestinian suicide bomber blew herself up at a West Bank checkpoint, wounding at least three Israeli policemen, Israeli witnesses and police officials said. The woman arrived at the West Bank checkpoint near the central Israeli town of Modi'in in a Subaru car with two Palestinian men. At the checkpoint, a policeman approached the car to inspect it when the woman got out and detonated explosives strapped to her body, Shahar Ayalon, the Israeli West Bank police commander, said. The two passengers were critically wounded in the blast. Israel's Army radio said one of the passengers also had a bomb strapped to his body. One policeman was moderately wounded and the other two were slightly hurt.
