Two Israelis Murdered by Palestinian Employee in West Bank Industrial Park


(Israel Hayom-Ha'aretz) Yori Yalon - A Palestinian man, Ashraf Walid Suleiman Na'alwa, 23, who worked at a factory in the Barkan industrial zone in Samaria, shot two employees at the factory at close range on Sunday. The victims were Kim Levengrond Yehezkel, 29, a married mother of a baby, and Ziv Hajbi, 35, a father of three. He then shot and wounded another woman before fleeing the scene. Before the attack, Na'alwa gave a coworker a note in which he said he planned to commit suicide and praised Yasser Arafat. Some 3,300 Palestinians are employed in Barkan, together with the same number of Jews. President Reuven Rivlin said, "It wasn't just an attack on innocent people who were just living their lives, it was an attack on the possibility that Israelis and Palestinians might co-exist peacefully."
