Soldier Assaulted – Weapon Stolen on IDF Base


mda a.jpgAn IDF soldier was reported in moderate condition on motzei Shabbos after he was assaulted on the army’s Tzrifin Base in the center of the country. The intruders apparently went undetected and entered the base on Shabbos morning, assaulting the soldier who was on patrol. They beat him and made off with his automatic weapon. The soldier was transferred to Assaf HaRofeh Hospital.

Military police, Israel Police and the ISA (Israel Security Agency – Shin Bet) are involved in the investigation. Army officials report that following the event, soldiers aided by a chopper searched the area but the assailants managed to flee. The military believes the matter is a criminal one and not terror-related, but adds at this early stage of the investigation, all possibilities remain open.
