This morning several people were stabbed in Hadera, a city in central Israel. The local media reported it. Israeli police say the stabbing in which six people were injured, two of them seriously, was a terrorist attack. The police announced that “a suspect has been located and neutralized”, without providing further details. According to the first reconstruction, the man identified the attacker as Ahmad Jabareen, 36 years old, an Israeli citizen from the nearby Arab city of Umm al-Fahm. stabbed people in four different places and fled on a moped only to be subsequently captured. At the same time, five people were injured by shrapnel caused by a rocket explosion in the Haifa area. The Magen David Adom ambulance service reported that it had transported a 16-year-old boy in moderate condition to Rambam Hospital, along with four other men , aged between 40 and 50, who suffered light injuries from shrapnel. The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) confirmed that around 40 rockets were fired in the area. Military operations in the south do not stop of Lebanon and in the Gaza Strip where yesterday the Israeli Air Force carried out attacks against “around 185 Hezbollah terrorist targets in Lebanon and around 45 Hamas terrorist targets”.
The targets included terrorist cells, infrastructure, military facilities, observation posts, launchers and weapons depots, the Israeli army announced on its Telegram channel. Also on the subject of Gaza, the IDF distributed leaflets in the Al Mawasi area of Khan Yunis, Gaza, warning local residents against joining Palestinian terrorist organizations and including a message intended for Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar who is in hiding. underground, shielding the Israeli hostages who are still alive. The leaflet reads: «Hamas’s terrorist actions and the manipulation of your children to enlist them in its ranks have caused you to lose many of your loved ones in the last year. Hamas tries to persuade your children to join the terrorist organization by promising money. Don’t you want a better future for your children?” In the message addressed directly to Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar, the leaflets contained the phrase: “Sinwar, there is no tunnel deep enough. Ask Nasrallah!” In recent days, it has been written that Sinwar has resumed contact, after weeks of silence, with the mediators involved in the negotiations for a hostage agreement but the circumstance is completely false. Israeli security forces have in recent weeks sought to verify whether Sinwar had been injured during IDF attacks on Gaza. This morning, the Wall Street Journal reveals that Sinwar ordered the resumption of suicide bombings just days after becoming the almost undisputed leader of Hamas, following the assassination of Ismail Haniyeh. In fact, shortly after his order, a failed attack in Tel Aviv saw a terrorist from Nablus blow himself up in an uncrowded area, causing only moderate injury to a passerby, thus avoiding a tragedy of greater proportions. Today the President of the United States, Joe Biden, and the Israeli Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, will speak by telephone (the first time in months), to discuss Israel’s plans regarding a possible attack on Iran. Axios reports it, citing three US officials. The phone call should also serve to clarify things after the Washington Post, in an article mentioning the last-minute cancellation of Israeli Defense Minister Gallant’s visit to the Pentagon, wrote that «Israel is preparing a significant military response to the attack on ‘Iran, without having informed the United States of the details of its plans» According to cited sources, the Israeli Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, gave instructions to Defense Minister Yoav Gallant to leave only under two conditions: after a phone call between Netanyahu and Joe Biden, and once the military response against Iran is approved. Again, The Washington Post, citing Israeli sources, reports that Netanyahu tried in vain to contact Biden. However, an American official denied that Joe Biden has refused such contacts but perhaps today we will know more. Finally, as we write, a post was published on X on the official account of the State of Israel which reads: «Iran, one of the main sponsors of global terrorism, must be stopped before it is too late. On October 1, the Iranian regime launched approximately 200 ballistic missiles at Israel. This assault was not simply an attack on Israel; represents a significant threat to global stability.”
