The terrorist detected about to hurl a firebomb near the Shomron community of Yitzhar this past Shabbos, who was shot and killed by soldiers, is the very same terrorist who perpetrated the attack the previous week.

The terrorist was detected this past Shabbos as he was hurling the incendiary device, compelling soldiers to fire at him.

The week earlier, he managed to enter the community during the early morning hours and stabbed and injured a 9-year-old boy as well as setting a home ablaze. That time, a week earlier, he managed to fee the scene.

Community residents responded by entering the Arab village from where the terrorist came and fired weapons, reportedly injuring a number of people. They actions were sharply condemned by politicians, which some community residents stated prompted the second attack.

They condemned the government’s placid attitude to mounting Arab terror and the decision to turn a blind eye when “settlers” are attacked since Yitzhar is known not to be a fan of the current administration and its policies.
