70-Year-Old Man Stabbed as Terror Strikes Israeli Town of Netanya

A 70-year-old Jewish-Israeli man was stabbed by a Palestinian assailant in Netanya.

The victim in Monday evening’s attack was taken to the hospital in serious condition. It was the second Palestinian stabbing attack in a central Israel city in the span of about three hours.

Police shot and apprehended the stabber, who was from the West Bank city of Tulkarem, located some 10 miles east of Netanya.

In the earlier attack, three Israelis, including an 80-year-old woman, were stabbed in Rishon LeZion. Two of the victims were in serious condition.

This is what a terror attack looks like. Difficult images but the world must see them.http://bit.ly/20nzboJ

I hope you appreciated this article. Before you go, I’d like to ask you to please support the Forward’s award-winning journalism this Passover.

In this age of misinformation, our work is needed like never before. We report on the news that matters most to American Jews, driven by truth, not ideology.

At a time when newsrooms are closing or cutting back, the Forward has removed its paywall. That means for the first time in our 126-year history, Forward journalism is free to everyone, everywhere. With an ongoing war, rising antisemitism, and a flood of disinformation that may affect the upcoming election, we believe that free and open access to Jewish journalism is imperative.

Readers like you make it all possible. Right now, we’re in the middle of our Passover Pledge Drive and we need 500 people to step up and make a gift to sustain our trustworthy, independent journalism.

Make a gift of any size and become a Forward member today. You’ll support our mission to tell the American Jewish story fully and fairly.
