The two victims of yesterday\'s brutal terrorist shooting attack at the French Hill junction were Shoshana Ben-Yeshai, 16, of Beitar Illit, and Menashe Regev, 14, of Jerusalem. Police and army protection at the French Hill junction has been beefed up as of this morning. Seven of the wounded are still hospitalized, including two in stable but serious condition.
Menashe Regev, known as Meni, was buried at noon in the Har HaMenuchot cemetery. A resident of Ramot, he volunteered on his school\'s \"Kindness Committee.\" At Shoshana\'s funeral last night, Tourism Minister Benny Elon said that we must not become accustomed to a routine of attacks and murders. \"We will not rest until we restore security to this land,\" he said. One of her teachers said that Shoshie was the \"ultimate symbol of smiles, good cheer, and desire to help.\" The teacher added that the students in the school are praying for another girl who was severely wounded in yesterday\'s attack, Sharona Rivka bat Rina Yehudit.
The terrorists continued their attacks today as well: Bombs were detonated near IDF tanks this morning not far from Gilad Junction in central Shomron and outside N\'vei Dekalim in Gush Katif; no one was hurt. In addition, an explosion in the industrial zone of Shaked in northern Shomron this morning - the police assume it was a terrorist bomb - wounded three people, including one in moderate condition. They were evacuated to HaEmek Hospital in Afula... Three grenades were thrown at an IDF force on the Israeli-Egyptian border…
In still more Arab violence, shots were fired twice this afternoon at Jewish homes in Hevron; no one was hurt. Jewish Community spokesmen say that this was the 10th time that the Palestinians have violated Jibril Rajoub\'s promise to maintain quiet in Hevron and environs.
It was announced today that the GSS and the IDF caught a terrorist cell a month ago that operated in the Gilboa area, south of Beit She\'an. The six-member Tanzim-Fatah terrorists cell murdered Aliza Malka near Kibbutz Ma\'aleh Gilboa three months ago, and placed a bomb in a Golan Heights restaurant.
