One murdered and others injured in terrorist attack
More terrorist attacks have flared up again in two places:
One Israeli was killed and another wounded Thursday night in a shooting attack near the entrance to the Shuafat refugee camp in northern Jerusalem.I don't know if Olmert's government will take any serious action, however.
One of the wounded died after resuscitation attempts and the other, a female, was listed in serious condition.
IDF sources said that terrorists had approached the entrance to Shuafat by foot and opened fire at a group of Israelis nearby and then fled the scene. Military forces and Border Policemen immediately dispatched search parties to catch the gunmen.
In another simultaneous incident, two terrorists were killed after they infiltrated a high school in Kfar Etzion, south of Jerusalem.
The terrorists, armed with knives and possibly with a pistol, infiltrated the kibbutz - in the Gush Etzion settlement bloc - and snuck into a building used by the Makor Haim High School, run by Rabbi Adin Steinsaltz.
"The terrorists came inside and began stabbing students," a defense official said. Three students were injured, including two moderately. They were all evacuated to Hadassah Hosptial in Jerusalem.
Shortly after the infiltration, a number of the school's counselors, armed with guns, arrived at the scene and shot and killed the terrorists. IDF sources hailed the student's quick response.
"This could have ended much worse," a source in the Central Command said.
