Ariel Bomb: Terrorists Take Credit, Police Suspect Cult
(IsraelNN.com) The Al-Aksa Martyrs Brigades terrorist group has claimed responsibility for a bombing in the city of Ariel on Thursday afternoon, according to the Bethlehem-based Maan news agency. A 15-year-old resident of the city was seriously wounded when a package bomb exploded in his home.
However, police do not believe the incident was terror-related. Police say they suspect that a cult was responsible for sending the package.
The teenager who attempted to open the package suffered wounds to his chest, neck, and head. Police sappers who investigated the remains of the bomb used in the attack say they are still not sure how the bomb was designed.
