Israeli Border Guard police killed a heavily-armed Arab who had opened fire on their position this morning. It was later discovered that the terrorist also had an explosives belt strapped to his body.



Another suspected terrorist was killed on the Tunnels Highway this morning when he did not heed military instructions to stop. The forces are investigating whether he was on his way to perpetrate an attack. A 20-year-old woman from Tul Karem was arrested; she, too, was on her way to perpetrate a suicide attack.



In another form of anti-terror activity, the IDF arrested last night a total of 21 terrorist suspects, including 15 from the Shomron village of Salfit. Three brothers suspected of terrorist activities in PLO-controlled Abu Sneineh of Hevron were also arrested, as well as three wanted Arabs from villages near Jerusalem.
