The hunt continues for the terrorists who carried out the attack yesterday (Friday) in the Jordan Valley.
Following the directive of Chief of Staff Herzi Halevi, the forces were reinforced in the area and a double-digit number of checkpoints were established around Jericho and Binyamin in order to locate the squad. According
to a military source, for the time being it was decided not to crown Jericho, to which according to estimates the terrorists fled. Instead, it was decided to place a large number in the area of checkpoints, where fighters will check suspicious vehicles, and conduct a search inside them. "The goal is to create pressure on the area, to cause terrorists to make mistakes and disrupt intentions for further attacks in the area," he said
. Instructions for operational tasks in the field as part of the hunt.

More than a thousand fighters overran Judea and Samaria and the Valley in the last 24 hours following the attacks and warnings of attacks.
In addition to this, disguised fighters were jumped, including undercover teams from the Cherry unit.
Following the security escalation, a security official stated that "the general message is to cool down the arenas. Both in the north and in the south. Certainly around the Temple Mount. We are not interested in an escalation, certainly not related to religious matters. But if required? We are ready for a campaign both in the north and in the south. Vigilance will accompany us until the end of the month of Ramadan.

The truth is revealed
The shooting attack that happened yesterday in the Bekaa, happened on road 57 near the Hamra junction.
During this, two sisters aged 21 and 16 from the settlement of Efrat were shot dead.
Aman, 48 years old, was critically injured, and was taken by helicopter to Hadassah Ein Kerem Hospital in Jerusalem.
A military official said that the findings at the scene show that the vehicle in which the women were traveling was shot by the terrorists, who later made a death certificate.
According to the source, the security system does not rule out the possibility of a "sophisticated attack", in which the terrorists drove a car, deliberately hit the Israeli car and caused it to veer off the road.
After that they got out of the vehicle and opened fire at the female passengers.
From the photos that came to me, voila!
It appears that the attackers were driving a Volkswagen type vehicle with Israeli license plates.
However, the number on the license plate ends in 26, which could indicate that it was stolen from a taxi.
On the other hand, the car was not registered as stolen in the police records.
