Suicide terrorist attack averted

An IDF patrol stopped the taxi in which the three men were travelling for a routine inspection, ordering them to lift their shirts and raise their hands in the air, in order to prove that they were not carrying weapons or explosives.

One of the Palestinians started running toward the soldiers and detonated his explosive belt.


He apparently shouted “Allahu Akbar” and the soldiers shot him as he detonated.
