Terrorists with Pipe Bombs Caught Near Jerusalem's Old City
Two Arabs in their forties were caught with two pipe bombs and bullets near the Old City of Jerusalem's Flower Gate (Herod's Gate) on Wednesday morning, according to a TPS report.
Border policemen noticed the suspicious men and stopped them, finding the explosives and ammunition.
The bombs were hidden inside the bagel vendor's cart.
The two were arrested, no one was injured, and police sappers are defusing the bombs with a robot.
The gate is called the Flower Gate due to the decorative stone design above the entrance.
