“Palestinian carrying six pipe bombs arrested near Nablus”
By YAAKOV KATZ AND JPOST.COM STAFF
ARTICLE SNIPPET: “An 18-year-old Palestinian was arrested Sunday afternoon at the Hawara checkpoint near Nablus after military police on duty discovered he was carrying six pipe bombs, an ammunition cartridge and bullets, and a bag of what appeared to be gunpowder.
Cpl. Ron Bezalel of the military police’s Taoz Battalion told Army Radio that the youth had sent his bag through the checkpoint’s X-ray scanner. When the explosives were discovered, the troops on duty immediately implemented the protocol for stopping a terror suspect.
“It’s routine to find bombs at this checkpoint... every day, we find knives and other weapons,” Bezalel said.”
