Police said that “civilians who were at the scene fired [at the suspect] and neutralised him”, without specifying his condition.Prime Minister Natfali Bennett met with his internal security minister and police chief shortly after the attack, his office said.The premier then praised those who shot the alleged assailant, saying they “showed resourcefulness and courage and prevented further casualties”.

Speaking to a Hamas-controlled radio station, group spokesman Hazem Qassem said the “operation is a response to the policy of ethnic displacement practiced by Israel against our Palestinian people inside the occupied territories”. Attacks resulting in multiple Israeli fatalities have also been rare in recent years, while Israel’s south, including Beersheba, has largely been spared such violence.
