WATCH: Police discover illegal resident hidden inside speaker during vehicle check
During a vehicle inspection at El-Jib Crossing, police said officers noticed a large speaker inside the car, the placement of which "aroused suspicion," next to a car seat with an infant inside.
On Saturday night, the Jerusalem area Border Police made an unusual arrest, discovering an individual hidden within a speaker of a vehicle. During a routine inspection at El-Jib Crossing, officers noticed a large speaker placed suspiciously beside an infant seat in a car. This prompted the arrest of both the driver and the illegal resident, who were subsequently questioned by both Border Police and Israeli intelligence officials.
The incident took a more dramatic turn earlier Sunday, as police found three pipe bombs outside the Ramallah train station. Alongside the explosives, authorities also discovered a substantial amount of 5.56 caliber ammunition, which had been stolen from the IDF. The police swiftly disarmed the bombs and removed the items for further investigation.
Earlier in the day, the police reported another significant seizure, this time in the Bedouin village of Bir al-Maksur. After a raid, they found and confiscated several weapons, including a Beretta M12 submachine gun and a loaded pistol. Six suspects were apprehended during the operation, and both incidents were deemed to be of a criminal nature.
