PA police uncover 12 grenades outside West Bank village

Palestinian Authority police located twelve 40-millimeter grenades near a village in the northern West Bank, they say in a statement.

After finding the grenades close to Mughayyer, a village near Jenin, police dispatched a bomb disposal team to the area, which transported them to “a safe location” and destroyed them, the statement added.

A spokesman for the PA police did not immediately respond to a request for comment about how the grenades ended up where they were found.
