Eight people were killed and nine others were wounded Thursday evening when terrorists infiltrated the Mercaz Harav yeshiva in the Kiryat Moshe neighborhood in Jerusalem, police said. Three of the injured were listed as being in serious condition and taken to Hadassah Medical Center in Ein Karem, while the other six were lightly hurt and taken to Sha'arei Tzedek Medical Center. One of the injured is 15 years old. MDA declared the incident a "multiple casualty event." Jerusalem District police chief Aharon Franco said the terrorist entered the yeshiva, pulled out an automatic weapon from his bag and began firing in all directions.
Security officials said the terrorist was a resident of East Jerusalem. An organization calling itself "Galilee Freedom Battalions - the Martyrs of Imad Mughniyeh" took responsiblity for the attack, according to Hezbollah's Al-Manar television. The veracity of the claim was not clear. Hezbollah has vowed to avenge last month's assassination of its terror chief, Imad Mughniyeh, in Damascus. The organization has blamed Israel, which has denied any role in the killing. A large number of security and emergency medical personnel arrived on the scene, with some 50 ambulances summoned. Police and Israel Defense Forces troops searched the complex and the surrounding area for nearly two hours in order to determine whether a second or possibly third terrorist was still holed up inside the yeshiva or had fled. The evacuation of the dead and wounded was delayed due to the searches. MK Eitam to Arab MKs: One day we'll expel you from Israel Tempers flared yesterday in the Knesset when National Union MK Effi Eitam told Arab MKs that "one day we will expel you from this house, and from the national home of the Jewish people." Eitam expressed his anger at Tuesday's rally in Umm al-Fahm, where demonstrators chanted slogans calling Israel "a Zionazi state" and urging "Gaza martyrs" to carry on with their struggle.
"No sane democracy can put up with acts of treason during wartime," Eitam said. "We have to drive you out, as well as everyone else who took part in yesterday's unruly, reckless and treacherous anti-Israel diatribe." Balad's leader, MK Jamal Zahalka, heckled him in turn: "You're a madman, a miserable character, a racist," and was ejected from the debate. Ra'am-Ta'al MK Taleb El-Sana said Eitam should be imprisoned and court-martialed for his conduct as a senior officer in the Israel Defense Forces during the first intifada. "He advocates the expulsion of Israeli citizens," he said. "Eitam belongs in the ash heap of history." Eitam said in response that he did not call on an expulsion of the Israeli Arab community entirely, only Arab MKs and those who participated in Tuesday's rally. | |||||
