Only in Israel: Mail service suspended

Mail service in Israel has been suspended after a woman in Migdal Ha'Emek received a package with wires sticking out of it. The package turned out to be a bomb.
A police spokesperson told The Jerusalem Post Monday that a 35-year-old woman received a package from a Migdal Ha’emek post office and when she opened it saw something that raised her suspicions.

The area was shut off to traffic and passersby and police sappers came and neutralized the package. The spokesman said the issue of whether or not the package, which was sent from inside Israel, contained a legitimate explosive device is still under the gag order. [I've seen elsewhere - and heard - that it was a bomb. CiJ]

The spokesman said police are still trying to determine whether or not the package was sent for criminal purposes or constitutes an act of terrorism.
Please don't open suspicious packages.
