Arab terrorists last night murdered 24-year-old Avi Sabag of the Southern Hevron Hills community of Otniel. Sabag was traveling home from Jerusalem when Arabs hiding on the side of the road ambushed his vehicle and opened fire with automatic weapons. Sabag was wearing a bulletproof vest and a helmet but a bullet managed to strike his neck causing the fatal wound. A large IDF force arrived on the scene in an attempt to find the perpetrators of the attack. However, the terrorists are believed to have escaped into PLO controlled areas.
Sabag will be laid to rest today at the Har Menuchot cemetery in Jerusalem. He was a former Hesder Yeshiva Student and an IDF combat medic. Sabag was married just six months ago. Sabag was the second Jew murdered by Arab terrorists yesterday. Yesterday morning 23-year-old Esther Kleiman was murdered on a bus near the Shomron community of Ateret.
