A suicide bombing was thwarted early Saturday morning when an IDF reservists force discovered two suicide bomb explosive belts laying in an open field near the West Bank city of Tulkarm.
At about the same time, an IDF paratroop unit arrested a Palestinian in Tulkarm's refugee camp, who, according to suspicion, was to have carried out a suicide attack in Israel in the near future.
The explosives belts discovered were very large, and were detonated in a controlled explosion by security forces, Israel Radio reported.

Too bad they didn't put dummy belts in their place and find the killers.
