SOUNDBITE (Hebrew) Itamar Ben Gvir, Israeli Minister of National Security: “There isn’t anything more difficult, to arrive to an incident in which a child was murdered, we are praying also for others. A 20-year-old was also killed, there are no words more difficult than that. I first of all thank the prime minister for adopting my policy, first to seal the house as soon as possible immediately, I also instructed the police to set up checkpoints around Issawiya and to stop one by one, and simply to check every vehicle. I wanted to a set a full blockade but there is a judicial question here around it, and we will discuss it.” 10. Israeli residents surrounding Ben Gvir and chanting, UPSOUND (Hebrew): “Death to terrorists” 11. Mid of police observing smashed vehicle 12. SOUNDBITE (English) Master SGT. Dean Elsdunne, Israeli police spokesman: “A short while ago, the police dispatchers received an emergency call that a terrorist attack took place. From what we understood, a terrorist rammed his car into a bus stop of a residential neighbourhood at the remote intersection in Jerusalem. This terrorist rammed his vehicle into the bus stop at a high speed, injuring multiples. There have been two people announced as deceased. Of those victims, one of them is a deceased six year-old child. I want to emphasise that the attack was on civilians and the police will not stand for this type of terror on our civilians. The police arrived at a fast pace, but the terrorist was neutralised by an off-duty police officer who was in the area, neutralising the terrorist and stopping a terror attack from developing into something much greater.” 13.

The car-ramming took place in Ramot, a Jewish settlement in east Jerusalem. Tensions have soared in the Israeli-annexed eastern half of the city, following a Palestinian shooting attack outside a synagogue on Jan. 27 that killed seven people in the deadliest attack in Jerusalem in over a decade. The Israeli rescue service identified the two killed as a six-year-old boy and a man in his 20s. It said medics were treating five injured, including an eight-year-old child in critical condition undergoing CPR. Others, ages ranging from 10 to 40, were in moderate to serious condition. Netanyahu's office has reportedly delayed the demolition.
