Tel Aviv terror attack June 9th, 2016


A shootingin Tel Aviv, Israel, on Wednesday which police were calling a terrorist attack — left four people dead and others wounded, officials said. From ABC News:

“The commander of the Tel Aviv police district said that there were two assailants and that one of them is under arrest and the other is being treated for gun wounds.
The two assailants were cousins, Mohamed and Khaled Makhamrah, from the Hebron area, Palestinian sources tell ABC News. 

The shooting took place in a market called the Sarona Center, across the street from Israeli military headquarters. Tel Aviv police said they had no prior warning of an imminent terror attack.
Micky Rosenfeld, superintendent of the Israel Police tweeted that Tel Aviv was under "heightened security" following the attack.”

I have great respect for the Israeli people and their resilient mindset and pre-disaster mitigation preparation. That being said, this event is a sobering reminder that no matter how prepared you are, all it takes is one moment of relaxation or distraction for disaster to happen. God rest these four souls whose lives were taken. Stay safe, stay ready.

Good Luck and Good Hunting
