Soldiers from the Israel Defense Forces’ Kfir Brigade thwarted a terror attack near the Gush Etzion community of Migdal Oz last night.
The IDF received a report of suspicious individuals approaching the south side of the fence that encircles Migdal Oz. Soldiers sent to the area arrested four Palestinians who were driving in a vehicle near the community’s fence. A search of the vehicle uncovered three knives and an improvised weapon.
“The suspects were on their way to carry out a terror attack in the community,” the IDF Spokesperson’s Unit said.
In another foiled terror attack, on Friday an Israeli border policeman was moderately injured while subduing a female terrorist who attempted to stab him and another Border Police officer stationed near Damascus Gate on the edge of Jerusalem’s Old City.

You may not realize the great miracle here. Migdal Oz is home to Yeshivat Hamivtar and the Stella Abraham Beit Midrash for Women a large Girls seminary of several hundred girls. This seminary is affiliated with Yeshivat Har Etziyon. Had the terrorists been successful in entering the kibbutz a terrible blood bath would have occured.
