On Sunday, a shooting incident at a bus station in Beersheba, Israel, resulted in the death of a woman and injuries to ten others, as reported by emergency services. The attack, described by police as a terrorist act, has heightened security measures across the country in anticipation of the anniversary of Hamas’ October 7 assault on Israel.
According to witnesses, soldiers shot the gunman, who was reportedly a member of the Bedouin community in the Negev desert. The ambulance service confirmed that the assailant was killed, but police have not yet revealed his identity.
As the first anniversary of the Hamas attack approaches, Israeli security forces remain on high alert for possible pro-Palestinian protests and violence nationwide, a situation that follows the outbreak of the Gaza war last year.
