Palestinian assaults 2 at Israeli construction sites
The mayor announced that the municipality would start to build protective structures to prevent vehicular attacks at bus stops.
Palestinians are angry at increasing violence by Israeli settlers at the al-Aqsa Mosque compound and their attacks on Palestinian properties, saying the Tel Aviv regime seeks to change the status quo of the compound, a complaint echoed by Abbas on Monday. A Palestinian rammed his auto into a bus station wounding nine people before he was shot and killed by bystanders, police said.
The Jerusalem Post reported that Yotam Sitbon, the baby injured in the attack, lost his leg after surgery on Monday night to save the leg, which was badly crushed in the attack.
Israeli police say two people are injured after a Palestinian construction worker beat them at two building sites in central Israel.
On Saturday, police released footage of a horrific stabbing attack in the Jewish neighborhood in Hebron.
Terrorists in Gaza also renewed rocket fire on southern Israel Sunday evening.
El-Ad said in a statement that Israeli soldiers and police officers effectively became “judge, jury and executioner” after the policy was encouraged by senior Israeli politicians and Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu.
Speaking yesterday, Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas said that young Palestinian demonstrators were “driven by despair (at the fact) that a two-state solution is not coming”.
Regarding the two-state solution, two-thirds of respondents said Israel’s expansion of settlements has made a two-state solution no longer viable, while three-quarters see prospects for establishing a Palestinian state next to Israel in the next five years as slim or nonexistent. Almost 20 Israelis have also been killed in the clashes.
Yossi Frankel, a volunteer from ZAKA emergency response services who was one of the first to arrive at the scene, told The Algemeiner that he got there just after the terrorist had been killed and was being removed from the auto, so it could be searched for weapons.
