It was released for publication today that a major terrorist attack was thwarted in Jerusalem two days ago. It will be recalled that a high alert was declared in the city at the time, and police checkpoints were established at the capital's entrances.

Additional details have not yet been permitted for publication. He was one of three suicide terrorists arrested by Israel in the last few days just before they were to carry out their murderous attacks; some 70 wanted terrorists have been apprehended this week.
