At this point, it is unclear if there are one or two terrorists, but reports from Arab sources indicate there are two terrorists. The terrorist also opened fire on a car approximately a half-kilometer away from the community.

The earlier unconfirmed report that the terrorist was neutralized was incorrect. No terrorist has been neutralized at this point. It now appears that the terrorist shot into the yeshiva from outside the security fence. There is a bullethole in a window of the school.
Residents have been ordered to stay inside and lock their doors and windows.
Details to follow.
