Palestinian arrested outside West Bank military court with pipe bomb

For the second time this month, a Palestinian man is arrested outside a military court in the northern West Bank armed with a pipe bomb, according to a military police statement.

Security forces cordoned off the entrance to the Samaria Military Court, and bomb disposal experts defused the shrapnel-filled explosive device.

The man is detained for questioning and the court has since reopened.

A similar incident at the Samaria Military Court last week saw a Palestinian man arrested trying to enter the court armed with a pipe bomb.
