Israeli army deploys thousands of reservists to West Bank, Gaza
The Israeli army is deploying thousands of reservists to the West Bank and Gaza Strip after intelligence reports that Palestinian militants were planning more attacks, reports and military sources said.

The Israeli media reported that five reserve battalions -- which are each composed of at least 500 troops -- had been called up on the orders of Defence Minister Shaul Mofaz, despite the misgivings of chief of staff General Moshe Yaalon.

A military source confirmed that reservists were being called up but would not give numbers.

"The Israeli army has today mobilised a certain number of reservists for a limited time who will be deployed in the territories," the source told AFP.
