Police find makeshift bomb in West Bank car
An improvised explosive device, or IED, was discovered by police in a Palestinian car Monday morning near a checkpoint at the West Bank village of Azaria, police say.
Based on prior intelligence, police were stationed in the area in anticipation of an attempted attack.
Five residents of Hebron who were in the car were arrested.
Initial police assessments suggest the bomb was intended for a Fatah event in Hebron and not to be used in a terror attack against Israelis.
