Minister of Internal Security Omer Bar-Lev, referred to the two terrorist attacks that have taken place in Jerusalem in recent days.
In an interview with Kan Reshet Bet, Minister Bar-Lev said, "We do not identify an organizational connection between the events, but there may be attacks of inspiration here. There are concerns of a step-up due to the month of Ramadan. The police commissioner will increase force in the Old City of Jerusalem."
