IDF Forces in West Bank Uncover Three Bombs
(Ynet News) Efrat Weiss - On Thursday, IDF forces disarmed two explosive devices near Beit El in the West Bank on a road marked for security forces' use only. A third explosive device was found near Beit Omer, just south of Gush Etzion, along with a set of IDF uniforms supposedly meant to be used as a disguise. "These incidents illustrate that there is still motivation to carry out terror attacks on the ground. They also stress the importance of allowing the military a free hand in this area," a military official said. According to military data, while attacks in the form of hurling rocks and Molotov cocktails are ongoing in the West Bank, the use of firearms and explosive devices has been rare in recent months.
