IDF forces operating in Ramallah found the body of Eliyahu Asheri, 18, from Itamar, who had been kidnapped by Arab terrorists on Sunday. Asheri’s body was found Wednesday night in an open area in Ramallah based on information obtained by General Security Services from a Palestinian Authority Arab, a member of Fatah, suspected of involvement in the kidnapping and murder, who was captured yesterday.
It appears that Asheri was murdered on the same day he was taken hostage. And the organization that carried out the kidnapping and murder is Fatah, headed by Mahmoud Abbas.
The family has been notified. Eliyahu was a student at the pre-military yeshiva academy in N’vei Tzuf, in the western Binyamin area. He was last seen at 9:00 p.m. Sunday at the French Hill junction in northern Jerusalem, where hundreds of people wait for rides northward every day.
