Police chief speaks at funeral

Police Commissioner Yohanan Danino speaks at Zidan Saif’s funeral and calls Tuesday’s terror attack a “very serious incident,” which was enabled by “continued incitement” among Palestinians.

“This attack joins other events, which are all a product of incitement by radical Muslim leaders,” he says.

“Zidan entered the heart of the murderous hell, without any fear. His actions, and those of his comrades, brought the situation under control. The malicious intentions of the terrorists to extend the attack were not implemented.”

Danino adds that the violence in Jerusalem can only come to an end if incitement is curbed. He also calls for dialogue with Palestinian leaders.
