Who Killed Tze'ela Gez? IDF Intensifies Judea and Samaria Manhunt for Terrorist

The IDF still has no leads on the identity of the murderer of Tze'ela Gez, a pregnant woman shot and killed by a terrorist yesterday (Wednesday).

According to Army Radio reporter Doron Kadosh: "Forces are going house-to-house in the villages of Bruqin and Al-Dik in order to apprehend the attacker. At this stage, there is still no lead, and security officials cannot identify the perpetrator."

He added that "due to the fact that this sector has already suffered 3 attacks in recent months, the sector forces gave it special attention: A patrol led by a company commander passed through the location where the attack took place just minutes before it happened. At the time of the attack, the patrol was a few hundred meters away and immediately rushed to the scene. They arrived very quickly - but the terrorist had already managed to flee.

He ended by saying that "the IDF identifies similar characteristics in all 4 attacks carried out in this sector in recent months: a lone attacker with a long weapon, firing at Israeli vehicles, and blinding drivers with a laser shortly before the attack."
