IDF officials said Monday that Rabbi Erez Bar-On did the right thing when he shot and killed a terrorist earlier in the day. Bar-On fired on the terrorist as he attempted to stab a 15-year-old at a bus stop near Shiloh.
“The citizen acted properly, in a decisive and fitting manner,” officials said. Rabbi Bar-On’s quick response saved the 15-year-old, who was not hurt in the attempted stabbing.
