NUMBER OF SUICIDE BOMBERS SURGES

Number of Would-be Suicide Bombers Increasing - Amos Harel
Security forces have arrested 90 Palestinians suspected of planning to carry out suicide bombings in the first three months of this year - more than half the number of people arrested in all of 2005, according to security officials. However, only one terrorist actually carried out a suicide bombing this year. The suspects belong to Fatah and several Fatah offshoots, Islamic Jihad, and the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine. (Ha'aretz)
