An explosion, believed to be the work of the terrorist EL Fatah group, this morning rocked the public baths in Moshav Aderet, a small farming community in the Judean Hills near the Jordanian border.

There were no casualties, and the building was only slightly damaged. In recent months, El Fatah, bands of Arab terrorists based in Syria, Jordan and Lebanon, have carried out several destructive raids on Israeli border settlements. A protest over today’s incident was filed by Israel with the Israel-Jordan Mixed Armistice Commission.
