Muslim jihadist in Judea murders 12 year old boy
A young boy was fatally shot and several people were wounded in a terror attack targeting a Jerusalem-bound bus in the West Bank late Wednesday night.It's clear the PLO did not want to prevent horrors like these from occurring, and the monster himself probably didn't care to turn himself in to their shock troopers.
The 12-year-old child was brought in critical condition to Hadassah Hospital Ein Kerem in nearby Jerusalem, where doctors declared his death early Thursday following intensive efforts to save him.
He was later named as Yehoshua Aharon Tuvia Simha of the Beitar Illit settlement — from where the bus had departed.
Three others were hurt in the shooting: a woman who suffered moderate wounds and two other people who were lightly hurt.
The bus was shot up by the gunman at a junction by the Palestinian town of al-Khader, the Israel Defense Forces said, before proceeding with the wounded to the Tunnels Checkpoint.
The Palestinian terrorist turned himself in, Israeli defense authorities said on Thursday morning.
The IDF, Shin Bet, and police said he did so amid their “exertion of military pressure in the area” — including by encircling Bethlehem.
He was named as Ezz Aldin Malluh from the town of Bayt Awa near Hebron.
He initially tried to turn himself in at a Palestinian Authority police station in the area, where his weapon was taken from him but he was refused entry.
Contrary to some reports, authorities said, he was not afforded protection at any stage by the PA security forces.
A video clip filmed shortly after the shooting showed passengers fleeing the bus after it arrived at the checkpoint, as security forces there rushed toward the vehicle amid the sound of gunfire. It was not clear from the footage where all the shots emanated from.
The attack came after three Israelis were lightly injured by gunfire the previous night while visiting Joseph’s Tomb in the Palestinian city of Nablus without coordinating with the military, and also followed a car-ramming attack in the southern West Bank over the weekend in which a soldier was seriously wounded.
