Palestinian Authority security forces on Thursday raided a Palestinian Islamic Jihad bomb lab in Jenin, arresting two members of the terror group, seizing a number of bombs and a large quantity of explosives, Israeli media reported on Sunday.

Five large bombs and six smaller pipe bombs were seized, according to Kan News.

A second, related raid was conducted in the city of Tubas, northeast of Nablus, according to the report.

Two Israelis were killed and over 20 injured in a pair of bombings in Jerusalem on November 23.

Israeli security forces continue to hunt for the perpetrators.

COGAT insists it “continues to allow and facilitate the entry of humanitarian supplies on a large scale.”
The Iranian-backed terror army launched an anti-tank missile and mortar shells at IDF troops in Lebanon.
The terrorists planned attacks on IDF troops and were eliminated in separate airstrikes in central and northern Gaza, according to the IDF.
Officials say nearly 45,000 foreign workers are in Israel illegally, while criminal brokers charge up to $27,000 per worker and enforcement agencies struggle to keep pace.
“In the last 30 years, nothing on this scale, at this level of preservation, has been found. The excitement is tremendous,” said excavation director Avishag Reiss.
Military source tells JNS that Tehran sought to unite Hamas and other factions into a single Iran-backed force in northern Samaria before the IDF intervention.
