The Israel Defense Forces caught a firebomber in the act Monday evening during a stakeout to catch rock throwers along Highway 60 in the Judea area south of Jerusalem.
During an IDF operation with the Shabak Israel Security Agency, two locally-made weapons, many weapons parts, ammunition clips, ammunition and propaganda were found in the Hevron-area Palestinian Authority village of Bani Naim. The two services teamed up to seize a weapon used to fire gas canisters in a car in the Samarian PA village of Naalin.
The materials and suspects were turned over to security agencies for further investigation.
