Palestinian terror in Nablus

The IDF is about to pull out of Nablus and hand over control to the PA. Meantime, Palestinian terrorists are trying to murder Israelis there.

A 20-year-old Palestinian carrying four pipe bombs was shot dead Monday evening at an IDF checkpoint located south of Nablus in the West Bank.

At around 7 pm soldiers manning the Hawara checkpoint spotted the Palestinian as he was making his way toward them in a suspicious manner with wires protruding from underneath his clothes.

[…] “I identified the explosive devices and yelled ‘explosives in the checkpoint’ and cocked my rifle. Everyone (soldiers) aimed at Palestinian’s head and neck so as not to set off the explosive device,” she said.

Ya’akov said she then ordered him to lift his shirt up. “The Palestinian raised his arms up for two seconds, then pulled them down and reached for the explosive device,” she said. At this point the checkpoint commander shot the man dead.

There’s plenty more here, none of it good. And nothing’s changed in the last two months.
