The IDF says Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Eyal Zamir is currently holding a situational assessment following a deadly ramming and stabbing attack in northern Israel earlier today.
The attack began in the Beit She’an area, near the northern West Bank, and continued in Ein Harod and Afula. Two people were killed, and at least two others were injured. The assailant, whom the military has identified as an illegal Palestinian entrant from the West Bank village of Qabatiya, was shot by a civilian passerby while fleeing and was taken to a hospital in moderate condition.
According to the IDF, Zamir is meeting with both army commanders and officials from other security bodies.
