The murder of Benaya Malat HY"D is another heartbreaking reminder of the reality facing Jewish communities in Judea and Samaria. Benaya, 32, the head of security and agriculture for Havat Gilad, rushed to protect a group of Jewish hikers, including children, who came under attack from neighboring jihadi Muslims.
What makes this tragedy even more painful is what the released video appears to show. Rather than immediately opening fire, Benaya and the other armed Jews, including IDF soldiers, attempted to de-escalate the confrontation. Benaya even used his rifle as a defensive tool instead of firing it. During the struggle, one of the attackers, the village Sheikh, grabbed his rifle and shot Benaya.
Just days earlier, Havat Gilad suffered a devastating terror arson attack that destroyed homes and businesses. Now the community is mourning the loss of one of its protectors.
This video raises difficult questions about self-defense, terrorism, security policy, and the continuing violence directed at Jewish civilians living in Israel's biblical heartland. It also highlights the dangers faced daily by Jewish families who simply want to live, work the land, and raise their children in peace.
In this video, Avi Abelow explains why this attack should not be viewed as an isolated incident, but as part of the broader security reality Israel continues to confront. We also discuss what this means for the future of Judea and Samaria, Israeli security, and the ongoing fight against jihadist terrorism.
