Three blank buses erupted on Thursday night until Israeli police found two more unspecified bombs.
Israel is preparing for an “intense” operation in the occupied West coast after the bombs exploded into three blank buses at Israel's Central Parking Depot.
Israeli security services say that Thursday night attacks that did not cause victims were the work of armed groups, according to Israeli media.
“Following the attempt to carry out a chain of mass bus attacks, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has just completed a security assessment,” said Israeli Prime Minister's office in social media.
“The Prime Minister ordered the (military) to carry out an intensive operation against terrorism centers in Judea and Samaria (the occupied West coast). The prime minister has also ordered Israeli police and Isa (Israeli Security Agency) to increase preventive activities against additional attacks in Israeli cities, “Netanyahu's office said.
Some parts of the west coast were immediately sealed and additional restrictions on the movement of the Palestinians were imposed. Referring to unnamed security staff, the Jerusalem post said the explosives were related to the “terrorist infrastructure” on the west coast.
Later, the Israeli military announced that it had expanded three additional units in its “central command”, which was responsible for the Israeli forces of the occupied West coast, preparing to expand its weekly offensive against the Palestinian communities.
“(Israeli military) continues to conduct an ongoing assessment of the situation and is preparing to expand the offensive activity,” the military said.
The bombs were destroying three blank buses parked in landfills around Bat Yam, a city south of Tel Aviv, while two additional unsolved bombs were found in the area of police.
The investigation was handed over to the Israeli Israeli Internal Security Agency.
According to police, the explosives were probably intended to go out on Friday morning when people were on their way to work, describing the devices as identical to others used on the west coast, but no more details were provided.
“We have to determine whether a suspect has put explosives on a number of buses or there are numerous suspects,” police spokesman Him Sargrof told Israeli media.
Al Jazee's correspondent Nur Ode said that the Palestinians on the West Bank live in additional fear after “the reports of the Israeli Hostile Action” after the explosions.
“The occupied west coast, especially to the north in Tulkarem and Jenin, goes through an unprecedented military attack that leads to a forced displacement of over 40,000,” Ode said.
The Israeli forces have created hundreds of control points of the occupied West Bank since the beginning of their offensive on January 21, and at least 70 Palestinians were killed by the Israeli military during this time.
There is also a widespread destruction of civil infrastructure in local communities by Israeli troops.
