Suicide Bombers Killed on Their Way to Attack
(Ha'aretz) - After an IDF patrol became suspicious of a Palestinian taxi and ordered it to stop near Kedumim west of Nablus, the three passengers were instructed to exit, raise their hands, and then lift their shirts to reveal whether they were carrying any explosives. At that point, one of the passengers began running toward the troops, shouting "Allahu akbar," ("God is great"). The soldiers opened fire, killing the man, who exploded when his body hit the ground. In the explosion another passenger was killed, apparently the bomber's handler. Inside the taxi the soldiers discovered more explosives. None of the troops was injured.
