Due to the sharp increase in acts of terror throughout Yehuda and Shomron and following the fatal shooting attack in the Binyamin Regional Council region, the IDF has increased its manpower in the Binyamin Council in the hope of halting attacks and restoring security. A Nachal battalion has been added to the existing forces in the Binyamin area to provide the necessary manpower to increase the IDF presence in that area of Shomron.
Arab terrorism increased drastically since the beginning of Ramadan. Firebomb and rock attacks occur dozens of times daily, most not reported in the media. This week shots were directed at a Jewish vehicle traveling on the Alon Road near Shvut Rachel in Shomron, resulting in one fatality, Kochav HaShachar resident Malachi Moshe Rosenfeld HY”D. Three others were wounded by gunfire in that attack. The IDF is confident the additional manpower and counter-terrorism activities by soldiers in the Binyamin district will achieve the desired goal.

all the lehavdil “manpower” and resources will not stop Arab terror, it is the One Above who protects the Jews. The Yiddish way is to daven and learn.
We don’t need more security! It’s a makom sekona and it’s not allowed by jewish law to live and visit there!
