The Knesset opens its winter session soon, with an address by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
Netanyahu will address Israel’s parliament just hours after two terror attacks in which three Israelis were wounded.
In Ammunition Hill, a Palestinian girl, said to be 16 years old, stabbed a Border Police officer, who responded quickly and shot her. She was badly wounded.
In Pisgat Ze’ev, two boys, aged 13 or 14 according to Channel 2, stabbed two Israelis, 16 and 20 years old, in what looks to be a coordinated two-pronged stabbing attack.
One of the Jewish victims is in critical condition, and the other is in very serious condition.
Earlier today, acting police chief Bentzi Sau told the Knesset’s Internal Affairs Committee that more than half of the number of people detained by police for terror attacks are minors.
Help us report truthfully on social media
As a multimedia journalist, my job is to take the quality, fact-based journalism produced by The Times of Israel newsroom and make it accessible across every platform — from Instagram posts to podcasts to short-form videos.
This is how many, especially young people, consume news these days. But misinformation is rampant on social media. Our team at ToI produces accurate, responsible short-form reporting on Israel and the Jewish world.
If you believe in the importance of factual social media journalism, please consider joining our reader support group, The Times of Israel Community. Your financial support is essential to sustain responsible multimedia reporting.
