NextImg:Canadian citizen attempts terror stabbing at moshav near Gaza, is shot dead

A Canadian man attempted a terror stabbing on Monday morning at the entrance to Netiv Ha’asara, a moshav in southern Israel close to the Gaza border, the Israel Defense Forces said, adding that the assailant was shot and killed.

The IDF confirmed that the assailant was a Canadian citizen, adding, “We emphasize that the suspect is a foreign citizen who arrived at the scene from Israel and not from the Gaza Strip.”

The Kan public broadcaster reported that the man, identified as Qawarshi Zakaria Adam, carried a Canadian passport and that he shouted “Free Palestine!” as he conducted the attack.

According to reports, the suspect entered Israel on Sunday on a tourist visa.

According to the military, the suspect arrived at the entrance to the Gaza border community by car, got out, and threatened security forces with a knife. The guards shot and killed him.

“He was shouting, ‘You’re murdering people in Gaza!’ and we neutralized him,” said a member of the moshav’s civilian security squad, according to the Walla news site.

Magen David Adom reported that a 61-year-old woman was affected by severe anxiety in the wake of the attack, but no one was physically wounded.
