Terrorists opened fire on Motzei Shabbos at Israelis security forces at the Shuafat checkpoint in east Jerusalem, critically injuring a Border Police officer and seriously injuring a security guard. A 22-year-old female officer who was critically injured was resuscitated at the scene and evacuated to Hadassah Har Hatzofim Hospital, where a team of doctors are fighting to save her life. A 25-year-old security guard who received a serious head injury and a woman who was lightly injured by shrapnel were also evacuated to Hadassah. According to initial reports, the terrorist who opened fire approached the checkpoint by foot and fled the scene afterward in a waiting car. A large number of security forces launched a manhunt for the suspects. United Hatzalah issued a statement saying that “due to the nature of the incident, United Hatzalah’s Psychotrauma and Crisis Response Unit was dispatched to the scene to treat a number of witnesses.” Meanwhile, in Shuafat, Arabs set off fireworks in a joyful display of glee at the loss of Jewish blood in the attack: (YWN Israel Desk – Jerusalem)
