This week as almost every week there were dozens of terror attacks of varying severity not reported in most major media outlets. We report on these silenced events to present a fuller picture of the reality in Israel and balance the picture presented to innocent readers abroad. We hope that by reporting these incidents we can raise awareness so that actions can be taken to rectify this problem and improve reality in the Jewish State.
This past week (Feb. 19th- Feb. 25th) there were over 140 terror attacks recorded in the ‘Silent Intifada’ updates on Hakol Hayehudi. Among these were shootings, three stabbings, an attempted vehicular attack, and six attempted stabbings. In addition, there were a number of incidents of arson and throwing of stones and firebombs at individuals and property.
Eliav Gelman HY”D, a 31 year old father of two from Karmei Tzur, was murdered during a stabbing at Gush Etzion Junction. He was hit by gunfire targeting a terrorist who was stabbing him and he later passed away from his injuries.
In a stabbing at the Shechem Gate of the Old City of Jerusalem, two border police officers were injured and in Sde Kalev an IDF soldier was injured. Several other Jews were injured in stone throwing attacks on the roads.
In the beginning of the week, Arabs fired shots at several homes in Beit El, but thank G-d, no one was injured.
Attempted stabbings took place in Hevron, at the Shechem Gate of the Old City, near Beitar, at Tapuach Junction, and in Hawara. In addition, at the Shechem Gate, several Arabs were caught with explosives and pistols.
