Israel expels terror bomb mastermind's siblings

Israel today expelled two Palestinians from the West Bank to the Gaza Strip - an unprecedented step hailed by the military as a powerful deterrent against suicide bombings and condemned by human rights groups as a violation of international law.

Intisar and Kifah Ajouri, brother and sister of a militiaman who sent two suicide bombers to Tel Aviv in July, were driven by Israeli troops into the Gaza Strip on backroads to avoid media attention.
