In addition to the suspected kidnapping of the soldier Oleg Shchait, the Palestinian terror war continues on different fronts as well:
IDF soldiers were targeted, but unhurt, by terrorist gunfire south of PA-controlled Shechem early this evening... David Shilo, 40, of Jerusalem's northern Pisgat Ze'ev neighborhood, was stabbed last night by Palestinian terrorists as he rode his bicycle. He was listed in moderate condition, but has now been upgraded to "light." The police have arrested several suspects... A Fatah-Tanzim terrorist was arrested this morning in Ramallah, not far from the Mukata. Two wanted terrorists were apprehended in Hevron. Near Elon Moreh, Palestinians fired on an IDF force; no one was hurt...
Two Kassam rockets were fired at the area of Kibbutz Nir-Am, southwest of Sderot, on Tuesday night. The IDF announced it only last night. No one was hurt in the attack, and no damage was caused. The army is searching for the rockets, attempting to ascertain if they are of the "new and improved" version on which the terrorists are working during this hudna period. The terrorists fired nine Kassam rockets towards Sderot and environs in the last week of June, but July has been quiet.
