Palestinians make second attempt this week to blow up Israeli court

Palestinian terrorists were caught again attempting to blow up a military court in Samaria.

By: World Israel News Staff

Three Palestinian terrorists attempted to blow up a military court in Samaria on Wednesday, but Israeli forces securing the compound were successful in thwarting the attack.

The terrorists arrived at the courthouse, where they aroused suspicion.  A search of their clothing revealed they were carrying four pipe bombs.

The court was shut down, while sappers were alerted to the scene and safely dismantled the explosive charges.

The terrorists were arrested and taken for questioning.

No one was injured in the incident.

This is at least the seventh failed attempt by Palestinians to bomb this target, and the third attempt in recent weeks. The latest attempt occurred on Tuesday.

Similar incidents occurred earlier this month, twice in December, twice in October, and before that in May.
