The father of Chief inspector Jadan Assad, the Border Patrol Captain killed in the attack in Jerusalem on Wednesday, said shortly after being notified of his son’s death: “I urge leaders to reach an agreement in order to avoid the bloodshed and avoid more casualties from all sectors – Jews, Arabs and Druze.”
He further added: “All my sons serve in the security forces; the Border Police was in his blood and soul. He loved the service and he loved Jerusalem.”
