The Dodge Motor Company’s auto assembly plant in Nazareth was damaged early this morning by a bomb that went off in a car parked near the building. The automobile was wrecked and part of the wall of the assembly plant was damaged, but there were no casualties among the workers present at the time. An unexploded bomb was found nearby and dismantled. The footprints of five men were found leading from the area.
Meanwhile, several Arab villages in the West Bank area were placed under curfew today, following the firing of a bazooka shell into an Army camp near Hebron last night. No casualties were reported.
