TEHILLIM: At Least 7 Killed, Multiple Others Injured In Terror Attack At Shul In Yerushalyaim

Seven people were shot and killed and several more wounded in a terror attack at a Shul in Jerusalem’s Neve Yaakov neighborhood Friday night, police are saying.

The number of injured include a 20-year-old man in serious condition and a 14-year-old teenager in moderate condition.

A 30-year-old man in critical condition and a 60-year-old woman in moderate condition were evacuated to Shaare Zedek Hospital, an MDA spokesperson said.

According to police, the terrorist arrived by car at around 8:15 p.m. at the Shul and opened fire as Mispalellim were leaving the Shul.

At least two of the victims were shot on the street, including an elderly woman walking outside and a man riding a motorcycle.

The terrorist then fled the scene toward the Palestinian neighborhood of Beit Hanina — located just a few blocks away — where he encountered officers who were called to the scene.

Police said the terrorist was shot dead after he opened fire on the officers while trying to escape on foot.

In a statement, the Hamas terror group claimed responsibility for the deadly attack, sating it was a response to an Israeli raid in Jenin on Thursday.

“This operation is a response to the crime conducted by the occupation in Jenin and a natural response to the occupation’s criminal actions,” the statement said.

  1. Let us try that trick (legal loop hole) that was happening during the days of King Achav.
    Most of the people were not Frum, but they were united, they cared for each other, Frum or not Frum, they were helping each other like brothers.
    They went to battle and won every single battle and not even one person got injured.
    You can gladly google all this information.

    A healthy week for everyone.
