Israel, PA Discuss Tulkarm Handover

- Amos Harel and Arnon Regular Israel and the PA failed to reach agreement Sunday on the handover of security responsibility for the West Bank town of Tulkarm. The dispute centered on control of villages north of Tulkarm. IDF Col. Tamir Heyman said the Islamic Jihad cell responsible for the Feb. 25 suicide attack in Tel Aviv is based in those villages. Defense Minister Shaul Mofaz said Sunday that, together with the handovers, the PA needs to monitor wanted individuals in the towns where it assumes responsibility, disarm the terrorist organizations, and prevent terrorist cells from attacking Israel from the towns. Mofaz said that handing over additional towns depends on how the Palestinians deal with terrorism in the towns already under their control. (Ha'aretz)
