The alert in the south came at the end of a difficult day of terrorism. In the morning, a stabbing attempt took place in Hebron. In the afternoon, a drive-by shooting attack in south Har Hevron killed Michael "Miki" Mark, 48, who was travelling in his car with his wife, the seriously wounded Chava, and two of their children, Tehila, 13, and Pedayah, 15), who were wounded moderately-to-seriously and lightly, respectively.
