Thousands of security forces are involved in the manhunt for Nashat Melhem, the Israeli Arab citizen who carried out the erev Shabbos shooting attack in the ‘Simta’ pub on Dizengoff Street.
Two people were killed and others left wounded, some in serious condition as a result of the attack. Police on motzei Shabbos report the manhunt continues with the premise Nashat is holed up somewhere in Tel Aviv, not far from the site of the attack. They are also working with the belief that he remains armed with the automatic weapon used in the attack and that he plans to strike again.
Despite the immediate threat, schools in the area will open on Sunday, 22 Teves, albeit under heavy security. Tel Aviv Mayor Ron Huldai told the public that any parent who does not feel it is safe to hind his/her child to school should keep the child home. The mayor informed parents that special security arrangements would be in place in education institutions and school trips will carry on without interruption.

Not this time. You know why? Cus this time the terrorist attacked a left area; with pple eating into shabbos at pubs etc….. And when it comes to themselves theyre gonna demand full force. Its only when the right in the right areas are affected that its easy for them to judge favorable for the terrorist
You mean Weak * but yea it’s unbelievably pathetic. Mean while they torture Jewish “suspects”. I guess it’s better than having him on the loose
