Police release footage from the body camera of the officer who killed the terrorist in Bnei Brak yesterday after arriving at the scene with the officer killed in the shooting attack.
In the video, the officer rides on a motorcycle driven by Amir Khoury through Bnei Brak. As they near the Palestinian assailant, the officer, who police have identified only as Sgt. 1st Class “R,” can be heard saying, “careful Khoury.”
The sound of a gunshot is then heard as Khoury appears to be struck, while the other officer gets off the motorcycle and fires his pistol multiple times at the terrorist, Diaa Hamarsheh, who is killed.
The officer can be then seen taking Hamarsheh’s M-16 while calling out, “carry out searches, I took him out.”

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.
