Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Monday that Israel will soon begin the construction of 840 housing units in Ariel settlement in Salfit.
Speaking during a visit to the scene where a stabbing and shooting attack took place on Sunday killing three Israelis in Salfit Netanyahu said that he had given orders to demolish the house of the Palestinian attacker.
“We know the identity of the assailant” Netanyahu said adding that the Israeli army is in close pursuit.
A Palestinian on Sunday morning carried out an anti-occupation stabbing and shooting attack near Ariel settlement in Salfit killing three Israelis and injuring four others.
The Israeli occupation army announced that the Palestinian is 19-year-old Omar Abu Laila and at daybreak Sunday raided his home and interrogated his family for hours.
