Palestinian bomb squad detonates explosives near Hebron
2010-01-17
[Ma'an] Explosives were discovered in a metal scrap shop by a resident from the town of Ithna, west of Hebron on Thursday, and informed the police of his find, head of the local police department Awad Ramadan said.

"A resident noticed suspicious objects inside a store and called the police in Ithna," he said.
I believe that's called "product"...
"A patrol was dispatched to the scene where the police bomb squad was called to discover if the explosives were weapons left behind by the Israeli army. The bomb squad detonated the explosives without causing damage or injuries."
Hey, Moshe. Ya want your grenades?
Nah. I don't feel like lugging them back.
Okay...

The owner of the shop was questioned, who told police that the explosives were purchased from the Israeli city of Ashdod and "vowed not to buy such items," Ramadan said.
Ya promise?
...yeah.
Okay.

Ramadan urged residents not to handle any suspicious items and to inform the police immediately, keeping children away from the area.
