A terrorist in central Israel near Glilot rammed his truck into a crowd of people at a bus stop, killing one, injuring 36, six seriously.
The terrorist then emerged with a knife but before he could cause further injury he was killed by armed bystanders.
This kind of thing has happened previously in Israel, which has generally allowed licensed carry although in varying degrees over the years. The recent massacre on October 7, 2023, occurred at a low point in carry, and it likely has increased again since. People tend to think guns are no longer necessary when they don’t see violence, because they fail to see what is keeping the peace: keeping the piece.
