Security checkpoints are “the line between a regular Tuesday and a tragedy,” an Israel Police spokesman said
The Israeli Police on Wednesday arrested a wanted Palestinian terrorist who was found hiding in the trunk of a car while attempting to enter the Jewish state’s pre-1967 borders illegally from Samaria, the force said on Thursday.
“A wanted terror suspect from Tulkarem, who was believed to be planning a terror attack against our civilians, hid in the trunk of a car with another Palestinian buddy of his and attempted to illegally sneak into our cities through a Jerusalem crossing,” Lt. Dean Elsdunne, the Israel Police’s international spokesman, said in a video statement.
“Those that are following along know these checkpoints stop terrorism, weapons smuggling and many more dangers,” he stated. “Here, yet another attack thwarted, just like yesterday, when we intercepted a guy on Highway 60 who literally admitted he wants to go commit an attack.”
