Local leaders warned the Tulkarem find signals a “serious escalation” and a potential danger to communities in Israel’s center.
IDF troops found a homemade rocket in an open area on the edge of Tulkarem in Samaria; Border Police sappers disarmed it on-site and transferred it for forensic analysis.
The military says it is treating the incident “with severity,” and forces continue to sweep the area.
Initial checks indicate the device was improvised, old, and missing a motor—likely left in place for some time. It’s not yet clear whether it was ever fired.
This comes days after Israeli forces busted a terror cell around Ramallah that was building launch-ready rockets; troops seized additional crude munitions, with officials noting some lacked warheads.
Local leaders warned the Tulkarem find signals a “serious escalation” and a potential danger to communities in Israel’s center.
Security assessments increasingly point to Iranian direction behind recent Judea & Samaria rocket schemes, even as the IDF’s current view is that last night’s device posed limited range.
Investigators are now mapping suppliers, workshops, and handlers tied to Tulkarem’s terror networks.
