Security services disclosed today that they have uncovered a terrorist underground made up of students in the West Bank town of Tulkarem. Most of the members were said to be high school students and students at the Kadouri Agricultural School in Tulkarem.
They are suspected of sabotage, including out ting telephone lines near Tulkarem, and attempting to set fire to the local labor exchange and to a water pumping station last month. They are also suspected of printing and distributing anti-Israel leaflets. Police said more arrests in connection with the ring were expected.
The Kadouri Agricultural School was established in the 1930s through the legacy of a wealthy Jew in India. He had apparently intended it as an exclusively Jewish institution but did not specify that in his will. The British Mandatory authorities divided the legacy to establish the Kadouri school for Arabs in Tulkarem and another in the Jewish township of Affulah.
