Israeli security forces are on high alert following a series of terrorist bomb attacks over the weekend, none of which caused serious injuries. On Monday, a small bomb exploded in a supermarket in Jerusalem. A day earlier, a car bomb exploded in the underground garage of an apartment building in the Jerusalem neighborhood of Pisgat Ze’ev. Last Friday, a bus driver found a bomb hidden in a watermelon on his bus, which was parked in a Jerusalem shopping mall.
