PM Netanyahu Visits Border Policewoman and IDF Soldier who Were Were Wounded in Recent Terrorist Attacks

PM Netanyahu Visits Border Policewoman and IDF Soldier who Were Wounded in
Recent Terrorist Attacks
(Communicated by the Prime Minister's Media Adviser)

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, this morning (Thursday, 4 February 2016),
visited Hadassah Mt. Scopus Hospital, visited the Border Policewoman who was
wounded in yesterday's terrorist attack at Damascus Gate and the IDF soldier
who was wounded in a terrorist attack in Beit El several days ago.

Prime Minister Netanyahu:

"I just visited with the Border Policewoman who – along with her comrades –
acted with heroism and resourcefulness. Together with their commander, they
prevented a much greater disaster. I was impressed by her courage, tenacity
and steadfastness, and of her family. Of course, we all grieve over the
death of Hadar Cohen, a genuine hero. We all embrace her family.

We are in a very major effort against terrorism. Kabatiya is cordoned off.
The IDF and the ISA are carrying out widespread arrests. We have revoked
very many permits to work in Israel and the Attorney General informed me
yesterday that he has slated several more terrorists' homes to be sealed and
demolished. This is only part of our efforts to fight this terrorism, and we
will defeat it. It will take time; this is a protracted struggle. Islamic
terrorism is inundating the world and inciting millions in many countries,
from Jakarta to Africa to California. We are part of this turmoil, it is not
skipping over us, and we are fighting it with great strength and will
continue to do so."

Prime Minister told the wounded Border Policewoman and soldier: "Your
reactions and your resourcefulness prevented terrible disasters. The entire
Israeli people embrace you and hope that you will recover quickly."

The Border Policewoman who was wounded yesterday told the Prime Minister how
the incident unfolded, including the action taken by the Border Police and
her involvement. She said, "We are here to protect civilians. This is what
we were drafted for and this is why we are here. I have no doubt that Hadar
knew this and acted in this light. I understood that Hadar saved my life."
