Forces operating in the Palestinian village of Kafr Masaken Sha’abiya, in Samaria, exposed over 15 kg. of explosives. They were detonated in a controlled environment.

Border Policemen operating in Jerusalem arrested an Arab who threw a glass bottle at a security team in the eastern part of the city.

In Jerusalem’s Old City, police received a report that fireworks were launched towards a Jewish home. Acting quickly and using the area’s advanced security system, Border Policemen were successful in arresting the terrorist shortly after the attack.
