Israel stops major suicide bomb attack
Israel has foiled a major Palestinian suicide attack.

Israeli officials said authorities arrested a 17-year-old would-be suicide bomber in a mission planned by the ruling Fatah movement. They said Hizbullah ordered and financed the operation.

The insurgency cell was based in the northern West Bank city of Nablus. Officials said the Israeli military captured several members of the suicide bombing cell, including the handler of the suicide bomber and the truck driver of the bomb.

The capture of the insurgents capped a day of intense efforts on July 14 to locate the suicide bomber. Authorities had blocked major roads north of Tel Aviv in an attempt to stop the bomber, said to be heading to an unspecified Israeli city.

So far, officials said, authorities have foiled four suicide bombings in July. They said Nablus has been the center of Palestinian suicide attacks in Israel and underground laboratories have produced suicide explosive belts.
