Despite the inclement weather, the IDF continued its counter-terrorism operations in Yesha last night. Six terrorist suspects were arrested in Shechem, Har Hevron, and Gaza. Terrorists threw a firebomb at a car near Peduel last night; no one was hurt.



An IDF force found early this afternoon two explosive devices made with chemical fertilizers. The soldiers safely destroyed them, but the incident paints in bold relief the growing problem of terrorist use of easily obtainable chemicals to actualize their murderous intentions. Great efforts are being expended to prevent the transfer of such materials from Israel into PA areas.
