Bombing attack at S. Jerusalem checkpoint injures Israeli soldier

(Before It's News)

DEBKAfile was founded by a team of journalists in June 2000 as an independent Internet Web site, providing an intelligence and security news service. August 20, 2015, 7:59 AM (IDT)

The Israel soldier was injured Wednesday night when an explosive device hit the Tunnels Checkpoint at Jerusalem’s southern exit near Beit Jala. The terrorist made off. North of Jerusalem, a father and two-year old baby were injured earlier when their car was struck by rocks near the Atarot junction on the Rte 443 highway. Inside the capital, the light rail train was damaged by three Palestinian rock attacks. No one was hurt.

Our unique angle on these subjects – and strong intelligence dimension – has earned DEBKAfile a global reputation and a steady readership – which skyrockets in times of crisis.
