    Two Youths Charged in Gush Etzion Attacks

    It was disclosed on Thursday that Israeli soldiers arrested two teenage terrorists from the Samarian Palestinian Authority village of Na'alin last month in connection with an attack that left an Israeli woman comatose. The attackers, ages 16 and 17, were nabbed in a joint operation that included police, military, and the Shin Bet (General Security Services).

    The two are accused of a number of attacks on roads in Judea and Samaria. One such attack took place in August, when the two lobbed rocks at an Israeli driver as she passed the city of Bethlehem. The driver suffered serious head injuries, and was put into a medically-induced coma for days after the incident. Other attacks were reported on roads and in villages near their home in Samaria.
