The IDF shot and killed a Palestinian attacker who attempted to stab soldiers at a junction near the settlement of Ariel. An official IDF statement reported that “One of the soldiers blocked the assailant’s multiple stabbing attacks, and the commander of the troops who was at the scene fired towards the assailant and neutralized him”. The one soldier who physically engaged the attacker was not injured, and no other injuries were reported. Please continue to pray for Israel’s protection from terror attacks, especially as so many resources are committed to fighting the pandemic.
