Israelis driving past the eastern Gush Etzion town of Tekoa Thursday afternoon were shot at by Arab snipers.
None of the drivers were injured, but two cars were hit by bullets. The area's residents say that not a day goes by without rock and Molotov cocktail attacks, and that the shooting attack is an escalation that resulted from the army's inaction. A group of area residents protested the situation Friday.
A Christian bookstore and two internet cafes were blown up at 3:00 a.m. Sunday morning in Gaza by unidentified terrorists, according to a report by the Associated Press.
No one was injured in the Gaza City explosions and no terrorist organization has claimed responsibility for the attacks.
Palestinian Authority security officials, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said an investigation has been launched. Internet cafes and music stores have been frequent targets of terrorist attacks in Gaza over the past year by the “Swords of Truth,” a small Islamist terror group.
IDF soldiers arrested 12 wanted terrorists on Saturday night. Eight were arrested in Hevron, and four were arrested in Ramallah.
Soldiers were attacked twice with gunfire as they worked to arrest a Fatah terrorist in Ramallah. No soldiers were injured. Soldiers searching the area near the scene of the arrest found a small weapons cache.
Soldiers operating near Jenin were attacked with a bomb. No soldiers were injured, and no damage was caused in the attack.
A terrorist who gave a sermon Friday in an Israeli prison calling for terrorist acts against Israel was given as punishment a few hours in solitary confinement.
The terrorist was speaking at Friday prayers in the Shikma Prison, where 500 Arab terrorists are imprisoned. In his sermon, the terrorists implored listeners to "rise up against the Jews" and to conduct terror attacks against Israel "as in the old days," including suicide bombings and kidnapping of soldiers. Officers observing the proceedings halted the speech and hauled the preacher off to solitary confinement, the maximum penalty available for cases of incitement against Israel.
