Benyahu Malat, a resident of the settlement Adam and son of Rabbi Boaz Malat, was confirmed as the victim of a severe shooting attack that took place on Friday morning near Gilad Farm in the Samaria region of the West Bank. The announcement was made by the Emergency Settlement Team (Tzahi) of Adam, expressing deep sorrow over his death. Malat was killed during a terrorist attack targeting an organized group of hikers in the area. During the assault, attackers confronted a security guard who had arrived at the scene, seized his weapon, and used it to fire upon the group. Three other individuals were wounded in the attack and received medical treatment both on-site and in hospitals. Further details regarding the timing of Malat's funeral and the mourning arrangements will be released later by the community.
