State President Yitzhak Herzog: “The heart aches and aches in view of the attack near Ali, in which innocent Israeli citizens were murdered by unjust and bloodthirsty terrorists. I would like to express great appreciation to Aviad Gazbar who acted with great resourcefulness and eliminated the criminal terrorist, thus he prevented an even bigger attack and saved many lives. In the name of the entire nation, I embrace the families whose worlds were destroyed, and I strengthen the hands of the IDF and the security forces in their determined efforts to protect all citizens of Israel, in the south, in the north, in the West, and in the whole country. May their memory be blessed.”
Ariel Elmaleh, chairman of the settlement Ali: “This is a serious attack. After the attack a year ago at the Ali gas station, another attack took place there. Now the security forces, together with the Rabbi of the settlement of Ali, are conducting searches on the spot. Unfortunately, the writing was on the wall.”

Terrorism here and in Gaza is the same terrorism with the same terrorists and the same ambitions. It is necessary to launch a crushing attack against terrorism in Judea and Samaria. We must enter the city centers, destroy infrastructure and exterminate terrorists to the end Just like in Gaza.”
