Islamist terrorist kills 4 Israeli Jews, leaves 10 orphans

Laura Yitzhak, 43, mother of 3 kids, terrorist victim 

With the Russian invasion of Ukraine, other stories haven't been in the front of the news, like the one that took place in Israel in which a 34-year-old jihadi, [we'll call him Mo because his name will not be revealed here] killed four Jewish people for their sin of being born Jewish.

The four Jews murdered in the terror attack in the southern Israeli city of Beersheba Tuesday afternoon were identified as Doris Yahbas, 49; Laura Yitzhak, 43; Rabbi Moshe Kravitzky, 50 and Menachem Yehezkel, 67.

The jihadi, an Islamic State sympathizer who tried and failed to join the terrorist group, came from the nearby Bedouin town of Hura, home to the Abu al-Kiyan Bedouin tribe to which Mo belonged, "strongly" condemned his actions, calling it an "individual" act and didn't "represent the law-abiding members of the tribe who have always believed in coexistence."

But lo and behold, police later said they and agents of Israel's Shin Bet domestic security agency arrested two members of the tribe's family on suspicion of failing to alert security forces of an imminent "terrorist attack." The pair will appear in court the day of the funerals of the victims.

The attacker, a former schoolteacher, had been convicted of seeking ties with IS and preaching jihad ideology, according to multiple Israeli media. 

So there's that.

Kravitzky, a father of four, was a Chabad emissary and ran a restaurant in Beersheba for Colel Chabad, a charity dating from 1788 providing food for the poor and needy. The terrorist scumbag killed him by running him over while he cycled then he went on to stab to death his other victims.

LauraYitzhak, a mother of three, was stabbed numerous times at a gas station while filling her car as a Jew.

The sick zealot then continued his stabbing spree at a plaza where he killed two more Jews. Two other women were wounded in the attack with non-life threatening wounds, Soroka Hospital reported.

Israel Ozen, a paramedic for Magen David Adom arrived first to the plaza a began treating a critically wounded woman and he suddenly realized the woman, Yahbas, was his aunt, the sister of his mother.

There were no signs of life, Ozen said. “I was shocked, but I had to continue to function and take care of my uncle,” who was present.

Yahbas leaves three children behind.

Funerals for all dead were arranged for Wednesday.
