4 people murdered by jihadist in Beer Sheva

By far the most lethal terrorist attack in recent memory occurred in the city of Beer Sheva this week

Four Israelis were killed and two others wounded Tuesday in a ramming and stabbing attack at an outdoor shopping mall in Beersheba officials said, in Israel’s deadliest terror attack in years.

According to police, the assailant first stabbed a woman to death at a gas station in the southern city. He then entered his car and rammed a cyclist, before getting out again and stabbing several people at the BIG shopping center.

The terrorist was confronted by an armed bus driver, who attempted to get him to lower his weapon, footage from the scene showed. The attacker lunged at the driver, who shot him alongside a second armed Israeli civilian. First responders reported that the stabber died from the gunshot wounds.

Police commissioner Kobi Shabtai said the entire incident lasted eight minutes, with police officers arriving at the scene four minutes after being alerted. “Citizens displayed resourcefulness and killed the terrorist in the initial minutes,” he said.

Magen David Adom medics reported that a 40-year-old Israeli woman died on the scene after being stabbed. Five other victims of the attack were rushed to Soroka Medical Center, where the cyclist and two of the stabbing victims died of their wounds.

And the leftists who've hijacked leadership are basically responsible for leading to this. As noted here, the Hamas predictably backed the monster who commited these offensive crimes:

Israeli police stated that the murderer was 34-year-old Mohammad Ghaleb Abu al-Qi’an, an Arab Israeli citizen who lives in the Bedouin Arab town of Hura and had served four years in prison for planning to join ISIS in Syria but was released in 2019. Police said the terrorist stabbed a 40-year-old woman at a gas station, then drove his car into a cyclist, then got out of the car and stabbed several people at the BIG shopping center. [...]

“The Hamas terror group praised the stabbing attack, saying it ‘salutes the executor of the heroic operation in occupied Beersheba,’” The Times Of Israel noted. Hamas spokesperson Abd al-Latif al-Qanou declared, “The occupation’s crimes shall be met with heroic operations: stabbings, rammings and shootings.”

So now we've got the sad reality of having jihadist murders on the rise again, after several years. This is tragically bound to get worse, all because Naftali Bennett just had to join forces with Yair Lapid to oust the Netanyahu government.
