On 27 January 2023, a Palestinian[1] gunman killed at least seven people in the Israeli settlement[2][3][4][5] of Neve Yaakov,[6][7][8] in East Jerusalem. The suspect is also reported as having shot at worshippers exiting a synagogue, and, according to the police, was shot and killed after he opened fire on the attending officers.[9] It was Israel's deadliest peacetime Palestinian attack since the Jerusalem yeshiva attack in 2008.[10]

Palestinian militant groups did not claim the suspect as a member, but called the attack a natural retaliation for the raid in Jenin the day prior that killed 10 Palestinians, while the Palestinian Authority blamed the Israeli government for "dangerous escalation".[11]

Many nations and international organizations issued statements condemning the attack while others called for restraint.[12] Palestinian and Israeli sources stated that between 42 and 50 people had been arrested since the attack, mostly family members of the perpetrator.[13][14]

Attack

According to Haaretz, the attacker first walked 200 metres past the Neve Yaakov synagogue and killed 4 passersby and a motorcyclist. Then, people who had heard the shots began to emerge from the synagogue and the attacker fired at them and then on the way back to his car, killed two more people at an intersection.[15]

The gunman then fled the scene towards the Palestinian neighborhood of Beit Hanina, where he was confronted by police officers and shot dead after opening fire on them while attempting to flee on foot.[10]

Seven people were killed in the attack, five men and two women. The victims ranged from ages 14 to 68.[16] At least 3 other people were wounded.[10][8] One of the women killed was confirmed by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy to have been a Ukrainian citizen.[17]

According to some local residents, it took 20 minutes for the police to arrive at the scene of the attack. Some individuals expressed their disappointment with the response time. However, the police denied the claim and asserted that officers arrived at the scene and killed the gunman within five minutes of receiving the first reports of gunfire.[10] The shooting took place on International Holocaust Remembrance Day.[relevant?][citation needed]

Background

Location

Neve Yaakov, the location where the attack took place, is an Israeli settlement in occupied East Jerusalem established in 1972 on land illegally expropriated from three neighboring Palestinian towns: Beit Hanina, Al-Ram & Dahiyeh Al-Barid and Hizma.[18] The settlement was built under plans presented by the ultranationalist Kach leader Meir Kahane.[18] Neve Yaakov, together with the neighboring settlements of Ramot, Pisgat Ze’ev, and Pisgat Amir, form part of a belt of Jewish-only settlements interspersed among the area's existing Palestinian neighborhoods to prevent their expansion.[18]

Neve Yaakov is also the location of the the Israeli Defence Force's Central Command, which is the military based from which Israel runs the entirely military operation of the occupation of the West Bank.[18] The commander of this base is additionally the military official with the authority to permit new settlements, and to sanction the demolition of Palestinian homes.[18] This installation sits "directly adjacent" to the street where the attack was carried out.[18]

Perpetrator

The attacker was identified as Khairi Alqam, a 21-year-old resident of East Jerusalem.[10][19] An eighteen year-old relative of his was killed two days prior to the attack by Israeli authorities after he reportedly threatened them with a gun which turned out to be a toy.[20]

Alqam's grandfather, whom he was named after, was killed in the 1997–99 Jerusalem stabbings alongside three other Palestinians in 1998 of which the suspect is Haim Ferelman, an Israeli settler and member of the Kach movement.[20][21]

Musa Alqam, the father of the attacker, said he had no knowledge of his son having planned for such an attack or if he was motivated by revenge.[22] He told Arab media he was proud of his son, and said that "Today is his wedding. I married him today. God will help me and make him better tomorrow."[23][24][25]

Israeli response

Israel police at the scene.

Palestinian and Israeli sources stated that between 42 and 50 people have been arrested since the attack, mostly members of the family of the perpetrator.[13][14] Additionally, Israel is planning on demolishing the perpetrator's house. On 28 January, his home was evacuated and sealed in preparation for demolition.[26]

Following the attack, the office of Benjamin Netanyahu, Prime Minister of Israel, reported that the Cabinet was pushing to strip the residency and citizenship rights of the families of the perpetrator of this attack and others, and also possibly forcibly deport them from the country to the occupied West Bank.[22] The office also said social security benefits would be cancelled for the families of attackers.[27]

Human rights groups pointed out that such measures are collective punishment.[22] The Palestinian Foreign Ministry called the measures a "grave violations of international law, the Geneva Conventions, a collective punishment, and an extension of the Israeli policies aimed at affecting the Palestinian presence in Jerusalem."[28]

Netanyahu himself pledged a "strong, swift and precise" response,[29] and also announced plans to make it easier for Israelis to obtain firearms.[27]

Palestinian response

Fireworks were lit in Gaza and the West Bank by some Palestinians in celebration of the attack.

Mahmoud Abbas, President of the Palestinian National Authority, published a statement saying that "the government of Israel is fully responsible for this dangerous escalation."[30]

Palestinian militant groups called the attack a retaliation for the Jenin raid. Hamas spokesman Hazem Qassem referred to the attack as "jihadist and resistance action in the city of Jerusalem" and stated that the battle against the occupation "continues and continues".[31] PIJ spokesman Tariq Ezz El-Din praised what he referred to as a "suicide operation" in response to the "Jenin massacre" the day prior.[31]

Dozens of Palestinians congregated in impromptu gatherings across the Gaza Strip to celebrate the attack. Similar celebrations, including fireworks, sweets, gunfire and car honking, were reported in the West Bank cities of Ramallah, Nablus, Jenin, Hebron, and the East Jerusalem locality of Beit Hanina.[2][32][6][33]
