Israeli forces operating in the Ramallah area of the West Bank overnight located a cache

Israeli forces operating in the Ramallah area of the West Bank overnight located a cache of crude rockets and other weapons, the police, IDF, and Shin Bet say in a joint statement.

The raid in the town of Beitunia overnight comes after a cell of terrorists was detained last month for manufacturing crude rockets to be launched at Israeli targets.

The statement says Border Police officers, IDF troops, and Shin Bet agents located in a building 15 rockets that were in the process of being constructed, 18 explosive devices, firearms, and explosive material.

Some of the rockets and weapons were seized, while the rest were destroyed by Border Police sappers
