Interior Minister Ayelet Shaked commented on the recent shooting in Samaria.

"Palestinian terrorism once again illustrates to us that the war for Israel has not ended and that the citizens of Judea and Samaria constitute the first line of defense of the State of Israel."

"We will continue to take root in this country and build it to glory. The security forces will find the heinous murderers who have not yet come to terms with a Jewish presence in the Land of Israel."
