One Pisgat Zeev terrorist is 13, other was 17

The terrorists who stabbed two Israeli teens earlier today are both minors.

One is 17 years old, and he was shot and killed at the scene. The other, 13, was badly wounded.

Jerusalem District Commander Moshe Edri said: “I wish to commend the citizens who showed alertness and determination and made the terrorists run, and of course the officers who acted professionally and determinedly against the terrorist, preventing continuing harm to innocents.”

In a statement, Israel Police calls on the public to act responsibly and with restraint, to listen to the directive of police officers and to avoid protesting without receiving a police permit, since this makes officers move from keeping the public safe to dealing with the protests.
