Devastating Terror Attack Rocks Jerusalem – Multiple Rabbis Among the Victims
• https://www.thegatewaypundit.com, by Jack DavisThe terrorists attacked a bus stop and bus. According to the Jerusalem Post, the dead included at least three rabbis. Four victims were declared dead at the scene; two more died in a local hospital.
"When we arrived, we saw people lying unconscious on the road, on the side of the road, and on the sidewalk near a bus stop. There was a lot of destruction, shattered glass on the floor, and a lot of commotion," paramedic Nadav Taib said.
"This is a very severe scene," paramedic Fadi Dkaidek said. "The wounded were lying on the road and sidewalk near a bus station, some of them unconscious."
"Gunfire like nothing I've ever experienced," one elderly woman who was a passenger on the bus that was attacked said.
"The bus was packed, and as soon as it pulled up to the stop, there was shooting. A suspicious man made a phone call, which several people witnessed. While he was on the phone, the terrorists arrived. I'm telling what I saw, but others saw more. I went to the other side of the road and hid under another bus."
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said, terror attacks "only increase our determination to complete our missions, in Judea and Samaria, too — everywhere," according to the Times of Israel.
"The fighting continues in the Gaza Strip," Netanyahu said, adding that Israel "will destroy Hamas as we promised and free our hostages — all of our hostages. Sadly, the war also continues in Jerusalem and in Judea and Samaria, where we have acted with great force."
National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir noted the incident shows the success of his policy to arm as many Israeli citizens as possible.
"Weapons save lives," he said.
