Ynetnews reports: Since the beginning of the current escalation of violence, there have been 13 attacks committed by pairs of terrorists from the West Bank or East Jerusalem.
This trend is slowly beginning to challenge the perception that attacks are mainly carried out by “lone wolves” – single attackers – who go out to commit an attack without telling anyone of their intentions in advance.

IDF and Shin Bet forces are still searching for the two attackers from Har Brakha, who stabbed two IDF soldiers at a military post and escaped – likely towards the nearby village of Burin.
