Yoel Goldman April 21, 2012 Police on Thursday arrested two Palestinian terrorists who were carrying four pipe bombs, an “improvised” gun, ammunition and knives at the Tapu’ah junction near the West Bank settlement of Ariel. Both suspects are 17 years old and residents of the Balata refugee camp, which is next to Nablus, according to Ynet News. They arrived at the junction via taxi and began walking toward a checkpoint on site.
