21-year-old Woman Killed in 3rd Terror Attack in Israel

Hadar Buchris, a 21-year-old woman from Safed, was murdered by a Palestinian terrorist as she stood at a bus stop in the Gush Etzion junction in Israel. This was the third attack today.

In another round of Palestinian terror, a 21-year-old woman was murdered by a Palestinian man from Beit Fajar, near Bethlehem.

The victim, Hadar Buchris, was pronounced dead at Shaare Zedek Medical Center in Jerusalem. The head of Shaare Zedek’s trauma unit, Doctor Ofer Marin said that the woman had multiple stab wounds in her head and chest. She was not breathing when she arrived and did not have a pulse. The hospital’s medical staff was unable to revive her, Marin said.

ZAKA volunteer Israel Klatchkin said “We received a call from the ZAKA hotline about a woman seriously wounded from a stabbing attack. We arrived at the scene of the attack a few minutes later. The terrorist was killed by soldiers at the junction. The young woman died of her wounds at the hospital, after being evacuated by ambulance in a critical condition. ZAKA volunteers from the Shai region cleared the site of human remains.”

The terrorist was shot and killed by IDF forces.

Earlier today a Palestinian taxi driver attempted to commit a vehicular terror attack by running over Israelis that were waiting at a bus stop at the Kfar Adumim junction. After failing to strike anyone he exited his vehicle with a knife in hand, only to be shot dead by a civilian.

A second attempted stabbing attack occurred at Chativat Shomron where a group of people were hitchhiking and waiting for a ride. A female Palestinian terrorist approached the group of people and pulled out a knife.

A fast thinking civilian, who was just stopping to pick up passengers, witnessed what was about to transpire and ‘floored the gas’ on his car and ran over the terrorist. An IDF soldier then shot the terrorist dead.

The driver of the car was identified as Gershon Mesika, the former head of the Shomron Regional Council, whose vehicle ended up inside a ditch and likely saved many lives.

    The Crown Heights Jewish community needs to be more politically active and more Pro-Israel.

    This means voting in the federal primaries and voting for more pro-Israel US House of Representative candidates who stand up for Israel.

    Don’t forget how your US House of Rep Yvette Clarke (federal rep) voted against Israel by voting to lift the sanctions off Iran, and Crown Heights is one of the most Jewish districts in the country. NYS Jesse Hamilton (state rep) and Reuven Lipkind should be acknowledged for protesting against the Iran deal.

    Perhaps the Crown Heights Jewish Community Council can 1) HOLD REGULAR ELECTIONS so the Jews in town will have more faith in politics, 2) Encourage increased voter participation in the PRIMARIES ( less voter participation), and 3) Press the US House of Representative and Senator to be more Pro-Israel.

    Is voting a Mitzvah ?
