An English-speaking foreigner, possibly an American, is responsible for the suspected terror stabbing at the entrance of Netiv Ha’asara, according to security officials.

According to authorities, the assailant approached soldiers guarding the community and said, “The IDF is killing civilians in Gaza” and then drew a knife.

Troops then shot him. There are no other injuries.
