While attention remained focused on tensions with Iran and rocket fire from Lebanon, Judea and Samaria continues to burn with an unrelenting wave of terror attacks. No fewer than six terror incidents occurred today (Sunday) across various areas of the Israeli heartland, slipping under the media and security radar.
Nine Israeli civilians were lightly injured during the day from stone-throwing incidents and assaults by Arabs. Among the attacks, a shepherd from Alchei Farm was lightly injured by Arab violence when attackers assaulted him with a club near Sebastia. Additionally, terrorists threw stones from a passing vehicle at an Israeli car traveling from Homesh to Shavei Shomron, causing the vehicle to overturn and lightly injuring four passengers.
In another incident, Arab rioters threw stones at residents near a spring close to the new settlement outpost south of Deir Abu Mash’al, lightly injuring three people. Earlier in the day, a fire and screams were reported near Givat Mevaser Shalom. When Israeli forces arrived at the scene, the fire had been extinguished and the Arabs had fled. Additionally, terrorists opened fire on Israeli forces operating in the Hebron area. According to C14’s daily terror index, 104 attacks have been recorded this month, with 29 occurring in the past week alone.
