Shin Bet: Bus station terrorist was East Jerusalem resident

The Shin Bet security service names the terrorist who stabbed a woman at the Jerusalem central bus station today as Ahmad Sha’aban, a 23-year-old from the Ras al-Amud neighborhood of East Jerusalem.

Sha’aban was in prison in Israel from 2012 to 2015 for terrorist activity, the Shin Bet says.
