“I wish a speedy recovery to the officer who was wounded and to the Golani fighter injured last night in a terror attack,” Erdan says in a tweet, also referring to a car-ramming attack on a group of IDF soldiers in the capital.

“We will not allow the despicable terrorists to erode security in Jerusalem and we will act in any way possible to thwart the plans by the terror groups to escalate tensions in the area.”
