An Arab driver approached the checkpoint at a suspicious pace, thus alerting the soldiers manning the checkpoint. The soldiers ordered him to stop.
After approaching him they noticed he was wearing a wig. The driver was asked to turn off his car, but did not heed their order. A Border Policeman approached the car and tried to turn off the car himself. When his body was half way in the car the driver started to drive. The Border Policeman drew his weapon and forced the terrorist to stop the car.
The terrorist was arrested, and after searching the car the soldiers revealed that the vehicle contained a powerful explosive device, including a gas balloon connected to the device.
It was successfully neutralized, and the terrorist was turned over to the Shabak for further questioning.
This is not the first such attempt during Operation ‘Protective Edge’. On July 10th security officers of the Checkpoints Authority arrested an Arab who was transporting a bomb in his car en route to carrying out a terror attack in central Israel. One of the officers noticed a bag between the driver’s legs. Inside it was a gas balloon, connected to electric wires. He later admitted that he had been on his way to carry out an attack.

Baruch HaShem
BH a million times!!!
We have to declare a yom tefilah! Hashem is the only one that can help!!!
If these terrorists had as much intelligence as they do hatred, they would be unstoppable!
It’s so obvious since the start of this conflict that it’s only Hashem who is running things. None of Israel’s uncanny success can be attributed to nature or simply military superiority alone. The lack of damage the missiles have inflicted can only be due to Hashem’s miracles to save His. chosen ones. B”H.
Thank God
Less than 20 mins from RBS, we use this road a lot as it is often quicker than the highway to get to Jerusalem.However, it means going through 2 checkpoints & Arab villages with the security wall or barbed wire the only things protecting us. These soldiers do a great job – they know what they are looking for.
