Palestinian Teen Suicide Bomber Cell Uncovered

(Ha'aretz) Amos Harel - Eight Palestinians from the Nablus region were arrested on suspicion of planning a series of suicide bombings, the Shin Bet security service announced Wednesday. The Fatah group received money and orders from Hizballah in Lebanon, and were in the last stages of planning the bombings when they were arrested in May. The four who had agreed to commit the attacks were 15 and 16-years-old. "The uncovering of the cell is additional proof of the continued operations of the Tanzim military wing in Balata [in Nablus], which in spite of agreements with the PA is still planning suicide missions against Israel," the Shin Bet said.
