IDF forces demolished the home of terrorist Mahmoud Abed in the village of Halhul, who carried out the July 10, 2025, shooting attack at the Gush Junction that murdered Shalev Zevuluni.
Zamir described the incident as a “severe terror attack” and ordered an increase in troop deployments across Central Command.
‘Today we saw engagement, determination, and professional conduct, exactly as we expect and train for in the IDF.’
It was not immediately announced if weapons were found on the suspect, or what his intended target was.
Training failures and hiding knowledge of the gate the terrorist used are two main factors blamed for the tragic incident.
In a plea bargain, a Palestinian who attacked and tried to steal a soldier’s weapon will possibly be treated like a petty thief, outraging the victim.
