A terrorist attack in the heart of Samaria: A murderous attack that happened today (Sunday) at noon claimed the lives of two young men. A terrorist arrived by car at the Einbus intersection in the area of the Shomron Brigade and fired at an Israeli vehicle that was passing by. As a result of the shooting, two Israeli citizens were murdered, Hillel-Menachem Weigel-Yaakov Yaniv, from the settlement of Har Bracha in Samaria. In response to the attack, dozens of yeshiva students decided to return tonight to the settlement of Avitar, after about a year and a half in which the governments did not uphold the agreement they signed with the settlers.
Daniela Weiss, chairman of the Nachala movement, said that “the families and yeshiva have been waiting for over a year to return to Abitar.” The reality in which the Israeli government allows the Palestinian Authority to take over the nation’s lands with one hand and to murder his son with the other is unacceptable. The time has come for the ‘right wing’ government to build hundreds of new settlements in Judea and Samaria. The spaces call to the public”

Clashes between Jews and Arabs in Hawara Netanyahu: “Don’t take the law into your own hands”
At this time, dozens of residents of the area are protesting along Hawara and demanding that the government act firmly against terrorism. During the demonstrations, two demonstrators were slightly injured at the Great Yitzhar intersection, apparently from tear gas or stones thrown at them. Security forces arrived at the scene and began to disperse the protesters.
Following the clashes in Hawara, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu released a video in which he sent condolences to the Yaniv family and called on citizens not to take the law into their own hands. “A terrible disaster happened today. I would like to send my condolences to the Yaniv family, who lost two of their dear sons, may God restore their blood. The IDF and security forces are currently in pursuit of the killer. We will find him, we will capture him and we will deal with him.
He added that “even when the blood is hot and the spirits are hot – I ask not to take the law into my hands. I ask to let the IDF and the security forces do their job. I remind you that in the last few weeks they have eliminated dozens of terrorists and prevented dozens of terrorist attacks. Let the IDF complete the pursuit, don’t take the law into your hands – and together we will defeat terrorism.”
