A Molotov cocktail will be fired this evening (Saturday evening) at the office of Knesset member Itamar Ben Gabir in the Shimon Hatzadik (Sheikh Jarach) neighborhood in Jerusalem.
A short time after Shabbat ended, a terrorist arrived and threw the Molotov cocktail at the temporary encampment where Ben Gabir holds meetings from time to time.

A fire broke out near the bureau, but luckily there were no casualties.
A Jewish resident who lives in the neighborhood came to the scene with a fire extinguisher and put out the fire.
MK Ben Gvir is expected to arrive at the scene around 10:30 p.m. In a conversation with Israel Hayom, he accuses Prime Minister Yair Lapid and Defense Minister Benny Gantz of inciting against him. "They don't stop slandering me.
They turned me into a demon, and the incitement did its job."
The throwing of the Molotov cocktails is part of a series of serious events that took place in East Jerusalem and Judea and Samaria on Shabbat.

As part of an activity by the IOSH Security Guard fighters that took place at noon in the village of Al-Aizaria, disturbances developed that included throwing stones, throwing explosive devices and Molotov cocktails at our forces who responded with measures to disperse the protests.
During the operation, a suspect who tried to throw a Molotov cocktail at our forces was neutralized by fire.
The suspect received initial medical treatment by the forces and was evacuated from the scene by the local medical forces.
At the same time, Palestinian rioters from the village of Jania set fire to a burning tire and caused a large fire.
The fire spread between the settlements of Talmon and Dolev.
Large firefighting forces with the help of firefighting planes together with the employees of the Benjamin Council's security department and the security coordinators of the settlements fought the flames and prevented the fire from spreading towards the houses of the settlements.
The road connecting the settlements was damaged and great damage was caused to the forest in the area.

"This is an attack in every way. The Arab rioters tried to set Jews and settlements on fire," said the head of the regional council, Binyamin Israel Gantz.
"We see a step up in the boldness of our enemy. The Minister of Defense must order the IDF to act as if there were casualties here so that the Arabs of the region get a clear message.
Thank you to all the fire crews, security coordinators and council workers who were involved in putting out the fire in the middle of Shabbat."
