(Updated Tuesday 9:45 AM) IDF forces have cracked a three-member Hamas terror cell whose members were planning an attack on Kiryat Arba's Givat Harsina high school. The three Arabs, who were arrested yesterday morning, were found armed with assault rifles, handguns, magazines, and ammunition. Officials says that the terrorists have participated in scores of attacks against Israelis in the Hevron area during the past two years.



In addition, a bomb exploded under a Border Policeman's car in Ashkelon last night. No one was injured in the attack. Police officials say that the bomb might have been planted while maintenance work was done on the vehicle in Gaza's Erez Industrial Park a week earlier.



Several mortar shells rained down on Gush Katif communites last night. No injuries were reported... Last night IDF forces arrested two wanted Fatah Tanzim terrorists in the Ramallah district.
