An Arab terrorist attempted to murder an Israeli woman in the northern Shomron community of Ganim this afternoon. He stabbed her in the back with a 12-inch knife; she is listed in light-to-moderate condition in HaEmek (The Valley) Hospital in Afula.
Two other attempted Palestinian terrorist attacks boomeranged today. In the first one, a PA worker was killed and another was injured when a bomb was detonated by remote control in the small Gush Katif town of Rafiach Yam. When the terrorist saw the two victims approach their employer\'s car, he thought they were Jews and set off the bomb. In the second incident, a carbomb-in-preparation exploded prematurely in Gaza, killing two terrorists - including leading Hamas figure Hamdi Madhon. The PA originally accused Israel of \"liquidating\" Madhon, but later admitted that a \"work accident\" had occurred.
In the Shomron this morning, an Israeli car was attacked with Palestinian gunfire between Shavei Shomron and Chomesh. Several bullets hit the car, but no one was hurt. Last night, Arabs fired from a passing car at an IDF force near Avnei Cheifetz, south of Tul Karem. The soldiers returned fire and wounded two terrorists, one of them - a major local terrorist leader - seriously. He was taken to a hospital for treatment, while soldiers searched his vehicle and confiscated the weapons found therein.
More Arab violence within the Green Line: An Israeli car was struck by rocks near the Israeli-Arab village of Zeita between Afula and Hadera this morning. The driver lost control of the car, struck the guard rail, and was hospitalized with light wounds. In the Shomron, a Palestinian car attempted to run through an Israeli Border Guard checkpoint. The Israelis opened fire, and then gave chase; two of the car\'s five occupants were caught, and one of the policemen was injured during the chase. Residents of the Shomron held two separate demonstrations this afternoon against the increasing terrorism in their area.
In an overnight mission in the Jelazoun neighborhood of northern Ramallah, Israeli security forces seized a PA intelligence operative and another terrorist in a PA police uniform reported to have committed terrorist atrocities against Israeli targets interrogated by the General Security Service.
