JERUSALEM: Israel began calling up police and army reservists on Saturday after separate attacks killed three people, including an Italian tourist, in Tel Aviv and the occupied West Bank.
The Italian was killed and seven other tourists wounded when an Israeli Arab ploughed a car into pedestrians on the Tel Aviv seafront Friday evening. The car flipped over before he was shot dead, police and emergency services said.Police identified the driver as a 45-year-old from the Arab town of Kfar Kassem in central Israel.Three of the injured were still in hospital on Saturday as passers-by left flowers and lit candles at the scene of the attack.
Palestinian Islamist movement Hamas, which rules the Gaza Strip, called the attack a"natural and legitimate response" to Israel's"aggression" in the Al-Aqsa mosque. It was the heaviest rocket fire from Lebanon since Israel fought a 34-day war with Iran-backed militant group Hezbollah in 2006, and the first time Israel has confirmed an attack on Lebanese territory since April 2022.
It said air defences had intercepted 25 rockets from Lebanon on Thursday, while five had hit Israeli territory.The United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon , which patrols the area along the border, urged restraint, noting:"Both sides have said they do not want a war."
Useful distraction and stay laser sharp focus on CCP criminals.
Violence begets violence. Israel should tone down her aggression immediately!
