| [IsraelTimes] Three Paleostinians suspected of planning to carry out an imminent terror attack were detained earlier today, the Shin Bet security agency says. One of the suspects was arrested on the Route 6 highway in central Israel this afternoon after a vehicle with 12 other Paleostinians was stopped by coppers. The other two suspects were detained by IDF troops later in the day at their homes in the West Bank, following the interrogation of the Paleostinian detained on Route 6. The trio are from the West Bank town of Bani Naim, near Hebron, according to the Shin Bet. The Shin Bet says weapons that would have been used in the attack were seized at the homes of the other two cell members. All three are currently being questioned by the security agency.
Israeli troops found weapons intended for the alleged attack in their homes, the Shin Bet added. They included an M-16 assault rifle and magazines, according to an image released by the agency. The suspect detained on Route 6 was unarmed, and no explosives or firearms were found inside the vehicle, though he may have been scheduled to pick up a weapon at another location.
