Dear friend, Yesterday, we reached out with news of a terror attack near the Shivtei Yisroel light rail station in Jerusalem where an Israeli man was tragically stabbed in the back by a Palestinian terrorist. Today, our fears have been compounded. A devastating truck-ramming attack occurred at the Maccabim checkpoint on the Jerusalem 443 highway near Modiin. Six individuals, including three IDF soldiers, were injured. The assailant, a terrorist with a valid work permit, targeted off-duty soldiers before fleeing towards the Chashmonaim intersection. Thanks to Israel's vigilant security forces, he was neutralized. Tragically, one critically injured soldier lost his life, and several others are now fighting for theirs. This marks the fourth terror incident in less than 24 hours. The threats are escalating, but we remain undeterred. We at Zaka are on high alrt, continuing to mobilize and enhance our preparedness for potential future attacks. |
