Baruch Dayan Ha'Emet!

I am very saddened to hear about the passing of a long time follower of mine, Helene Grinblat, who recently moved to Israel from South Africa. It was her dream to live here. After many private discussions in the past I discovered that she actually knew my mother's cousin in Johannesburg.

Helene was in the top 5 list of people to tag in my music posts which she loved very much and it always brought her much joy. I am happy to have been a part of her joy where I could and I will miss tagging her in my future posts.

I included a picture of her on the right which she sent to me some time ago of when she worked for the Israeli Ambassador to South Africa, he was also the greatest mayor of my city Yavne, the late Mr Tzvi Gov Ari z"l.

May her memory be for a blessing!

IDF forces entered Shchem (Nablus) about an hour ago to arrest a wanted terrorist. They surrounded his house and have successfully arrested him.

Forces were met with some resistance from other terrorists.

A few terrorists have been shot.

Last night a car with a Jew driving was hit with a rock thrown by an Arab near Zif junction, close to Hebron.

Last night a terrorist shot at an IDF vehicle with an improvised weapon by Mount Hebron, south of Zif junction. The weapon broke apart after being fired. His vehicle was also pelted with stones.

The soldier was not injured.

At the scene they found a piece of paper which said "Death to the conqueror, from the Alnabulsi battalion."

Today this ex-terrorist was killed after he was shooting at a Jewish area called Ofra. He managed to escape but the IDF chased him down and shot him dead.

Some footage of the IDF, Magav and Shabak operations that took place last night in various locations in Judea & Samaria.
