JERUSALEM (Reuters) – The Israeli navy stated on Saturday it was boosting forces within the occupied West Financial institution, a day after a Palestinian gunman shot seven folks lifeless close to a synagogue on the outskirts of Jerusalem.

“Following an IDF (Israeli Defence Forces) situational evaluation, it was determined to strengthen the Judea and Samaria (West Financial institution) Division with an extra battalion,” the navy stated.
