Another fake bomb found
Once again police sappers called to disarm dummy bomb placed by anti-pullout protesters, this time at Geha junction near Tel Aviv
TEL AVIV - A fake bomb was found late Monday at the Geha junction near Tel Aviv with a note attached reading, "A Jew doesn't expel a Jew."
Police forces promptly cleared the area and called in sappers to examine the device. Previously, pullout objectors planted fake bombs in bus and train stations.
A 12-kilogram (26.4 pound) fake bomb with a note reading, "Disengagement will blow up in our faces" attached to it was discovered in the Jerusalem central bus station last Monday.
It seems the arrest of two ultra-Orthodox soldiers on suspicion of planting the fake device in Jerusalem has not deterred other protesters from resorting to the same tactics.
'A Jew doesn't expel a Jew'
Police received a report close to midnight that a suspicion bag had been left at the Geha junction near the largely religious town of Bnei Brak.
Sappers were called to the scene and police cleared the area, while a robot was sent to open the bag.
A small gas balloon and note reading, "A Jew doesn't expel a Jew" was found inside.
Once the sappers realized the device was fake, the junction was reopened for traffic and the criminal identification unit was called in to look for any possible clues.
Meanwhile, police have launched an investigation into the incident.
Notably, the Geha junction is fitted with surveillance cameras and police plan to examine the footage, in a bid to identify the suspects responsible for placing the dummy bomb.
