Underscoring the threat, police searching a truck that had entered from neighboring Syria found 200 suicide belts and packs of explosives, the Interior Ministry said.

It was unclear who was behind the shipment, but U.S. commanders say al Qaeda is increasingly utilizing suicide vests because many vulnerable targets such as outdoor markets have been walled off to stop suicide car bombs getting in.

This should be front page news, not buried in a story. Clearly, al-Qaeda is after the civilians because they can have no significant impact upon the troops.
