(Jerusalem Post) Tovah Lazaroff - UN Special Coordinator for the Middle East Conflict Tor Wennesland stated Wednesday: "Gravely concerned by yesterday's killing of 14-yr.-old boy by ISF [Israeli Security Forces] in Bethlehem." The IDF reported a hike in the number of Palestinian stoning and firebomb attacks against Israelis in the West Bank. There were 5,532 stoning incidents and 1,022 firebomb attacks in 2021. Gush Etzion Regional Council head Shlomo Ne'eman said: "The IDF soldiers who killed the Arab trying to burn Jews alive did the right thing. If this trend continues, I am sure we will see fewer firebombs thrown in Gush Etzion in particular, and in Judea and Samaria in general. Thank you to our troops whose strength was justified."
