Police clear kindergarten in south after suspected Gaza balloon bomb found
2018-11-02
[IsraelTimes] Separately, security officer’s jeep catches fire because of incendiary device from the Strip, as arson attacks pick up after brief lull.

A kindergarten in southern Israel was evacuated Thursday morning after a teacher spotted a suspicious object in the playground that was later found to be an bomb, apparently flown into Israel from the nearby Gazoo Strip, officials said.

Sappers were called to the scene to remove the device from the kindergarten in the Eshkol region, a local government spokesperson said.

"The object was collected by security officers and handled by them," the Eshkol spokesperson said.

In a separate case, a security jeep caught fire in Kibbutz Alumim, some four kilometers (2.5 miles) from the Gazoo border, because of an airborne incendiary device from the Strip, according to the fire department.

"The incident is under control, and there are no injuries," said the spokesperson for the fire department’s southern district.

"The fire was sparked when the vehicle went over an incendiary balloon. The small blaze that was under the car sparked a fire in a pipe in the fuel system, which caused the fire to spread to the front part of the car and caused significant damage to the vehicle," he said.

Thursday’s two suspected attacks from Gazoo came amid an uptick in airborne arson attempts from the coastal enclave, following a brief lull earlier in the week.

Arson attacks, which had taken place on an almost daily basis since late March, all but halted entirely from last Thursday to Tuesday.
