2 Jerusalem Arabs Arrested with Nine Firebombs in Schoolbags

Police discovered nine firebombs in the schoolbags of two 17-year-old Arabs in Jerusalem last week. The arrests happened on Meir Nakar Street in Armon HaNatziv, which leads down to nearby Jabel Mukaber. It's a popular location for Arabs from Jabal Mukaber to attack Jews.

Border police approached the two youths, noticing the strong smell of gasoline surrounding them.

Checking their schoolbags they found nine glass bottles, two of them already prepared for throwing, as well as a 2-liter plastic bottle filled with gasoline, cloth for the fuses, tape and a long knife.

If all that wasn't a giveaway, they wrote on their bags the name of a popular Arab terrorist.

During their interrogation they admitted they planned to throw the firebombs at the police guarding the area from Arab terrorists.
