They would assemble the Molotov cocktail and throw them at the Beit Yehonatan apartment, a heavily fortified seven-story apartment building that houses seven Jewish families.The owner of the store in Ras Al Amud was also arrested for selling explosives to minors. The police, who arrested the group over the past few days, are expected to indict the group this week.
