A 9-year-old girl was lightly to moderately injured by stray gunfire today (Friday) in the settlement of Kochav Ya'akov in Binyamin. IDF forces arrived at the scene and began searching, and the Home Front Command instructed the residents to enter the building, lock the doors and close the windows. MDA medics and paramedics provided medical treatment to the girl, who was injured in the shoulder, and evacuated her to Shaare Zedek Hospital in Jerusalem. According to a military source, it is unclear whether the shooting was deliberate.
This morning, a terrorist armed with a knife was neutralized after he infiltrated the community of Tana Omrim in the South Hebron Hills to carry out a stabbing attack near the synagogue there. Security camera footage shows that the terrorist, Alaa Qisiya, 25, from Dahiriya, near Hebron, crawled under the entrance gate with a knife in his hand. The terrorist was shot by a community security guard and pronounced dead at the scene by an MDA team. There were no other casualties in the incident.
