    Gush Etzion Mayor: 'Heroic resident identified danger, acted quickly'

    Gush Etziyon Council head Shlomo Ne'eman commented on the attempted stabbing attack today at Gush Etziyon Junction.

    "The attempted terror attack finished as it should. Any attempt at carrying out a terror attack in the State of Israel, should end without casualties and with the terrorist dead. We thank the Gush Etzion hero, a civilian, who identified the threat and acted quickly and with determination, which brought about the necessary result.”

    Ne’eman added: “To our enemies we say that they don’t really scare us, and certainly will not weaken the mission of the residents of Judea and Samaria. The opposite is true: we are here forever, we will build Gush Etzion, and we will expand and develop this amazing place; and in all of Judea and Samaria. This is the land of our ancestors, and soon we will be a sovereign part of the State of Israel.”
