Ashdod residents Aviad Nir, 28, and his father Shai Silas Nigreker, 60, have been named as the father and son murdered in the attack.

“In their lives and in their deaths, they were not separated,” Ashdod Mayor Dr. Yehiel Lasry said. “All of Ashdod is mourning this evening, after the Shabbat murder of a father and son, residents of the city, in a horrible shooting attack which stole their lives in such a cruel and criminal fashion.”

Initial investigations show that the terrorist arrived on foot at a location on the road where security was not reinforced during Shabbat. The terrorist then entered a car wash, where the pair’s vehicle was parked after the two ran errands in Huwara earlier in the day. The terrorist identified the pair as Israelis after they spoke in Hebrew, and fired five bullets at them from point-blank range. He then escaped on foot. Later, his weapon was discovered.

This is the tenth terror attack in Huwara since the beginning of this year. Six of the terror attacks were shooting attacks, two were ramming attacks, and two were stabbing attacks. Four Israelis have been murdered in Huwara in the past eight months, and eight others were injured – two severely, three moderately, and three lightly.

Residents of Huwara celebrate after murder of 2 Israelis

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said, “I send condolences to the family of the two murdered victims, a father and son, whose lives were cut short in such a cruel and criminal fashion over Shabbat. Security forces are working with great vigor in order to capture the murderer and bring him to justice, exactly as we have done with all of the murderers until now.”

Israeli President Isaac Herzog responded, “This was a sad Shabbat, which ended with great pain, after two people, a father and son, were murdered in a serious terror attack in Huwara. I am sure that the IDF and security forces will lay hands on the despicable murderer. We must not let terror defeat us.”

In the 1980s, a Rabbi from Brooklyn wanted to expel all Arab from Israel.

This would have prevented thousands of Jewish deaths — by Arab terrorists.

How many Jews were never born,
because their parents were killed by Arab terrorists?

How many Jews became orphans,
because their parents were killed by Arab terrorists?

How many Jews left Eretz HaKodesh for galut,
because of trauma created by Arab terrorists?

Instead of expelling Arabs from Israel, we expelled stupidly Jews from Gaza.

SEND ALL ARABS TO NORTH-WEST CHINA!!
THEY KNOW HOW TO HANDLE MUSLIMS!!

PS: Any Jew who voluntarily chooses an Arab or Muslim doctor or dentist or pharmacist is making a terrible mistake.

Boruch dayan ha’emes. Israel needs to get rid of “refugee” areas and export Arabs who do not support Israel.

The father is reported to be an Indian national, and therefore not Jewish at all. If he was a Righteous Convert, then why the Sabbath desecration in Huwara? If a female gentile who has marital relations with a Jewish man is a shiktza, then this man was a sheketz.

Had the Zionists not shmaded these Jews and allowed them to keep their religion (never mind actually teaching about Judaism in their so-called Jewish State), these two Jews would still be among the living.
