On Tuesday, police discovered and defused a bomb on the tracks of the Jerusalem Light Rail, near the Central Bus Station, according to a report by Ariel Kahane of Israel Hayom.
That bomb was within the same distance as the bombs that blew up in Jerusalem this morning.
האם הפיגוע הכפול הוא למעשה משולש? אמש התגלה מטען חבלה במסלול הרכבת הקלה בירושלים ליד התחנה המרכזית, כלומר באותו מרחב של שני הפיצוצים הבוקר.
