Attacks against the Jerusalem light rail continue. There were at least four rock-throwing attacks on Thursday evening. B’chasdei Hashem, despite at least eight smashed windows, there were no injuries.
The attacks occur when the light rail passes through Beit Haninah, a predominately Arab neighborhood of the capital. On Thursday evening 15 Tammuz, when some of the attacks occurred, a large rally was held in the community to mark the first anniversary of the murder of local youth Muhmad Abu-Khadir, who was abducted, beaten and set on fire by Jews who are on trial for the heinous act. During the rally participants shouted “we want a new intifada”.

Punish the arabs, every rock no service bus or tram unless the person is caught. rather shot to kill take no prisoners
what happened to the drones that were supposed to monitor these rail stops?why is the city standing by and not arresting and heavily fining these people to pay for all the repairs!
