Jerusalem woke up this Saturday with a new terrorist shooting in which a minor 13-year-old Palestinian seriously injured a father and son. After the attack, its perpetrator was killed by shots from two Israeli civilians. Thus, the climate of tension in the city grows, since the second attack is dealt with in less than 24 hours.
It was during the night of this Friday when another Palestinian opened fire near a synagogue, killing seven people and wounding three others. The attacker tried to flee in his car, although five minutes later, the Police managed to shoot him down. It is the deadliest attack since 2011, and Israel has already detained 42 people in the area.
In addition, the Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, has visited the area and has announced immediate measures: “I have just made an assessment of the situation with the authorities, and we have decided on some immediate measures,” he stated. And while, in Gaza and the West Bank celebrate what happened with sweets and fireworks, and, in the same line, Hamas and the Islamic jihad, although they have not claimed responsibility for the attack, they have celebrated it.
Authorities believe the attacks are retaliation for the violent incursion by the Israeli Army on Thursday in JeninWest Bank, where they left at least eight Palestinians killed.
