A 14-year-old Palestinian boy who was stopped by Border Police for jumping a turnstile on Wednesday morning at the Shuafat refugee camp in Yerushalayim was found to be carrying a knife.

Overnight Tuesday, IDF and police forces uncovered a factory for weapons parts in the village of Sawahra near the Etzion bloc, south of the capital.
