The 2025 Yokneam attack that took place on 24 March 2025, was a combined vehicular, stabbing and shooting attack near Yokneam Illit in Northern Israel. The outcome resulted in the death of Moshe Horn, an 86-year-old victim of the terror attack and serious injuries to an 18-year-old soldier. The assailant, identified as Karam Jabarin, a 25-year-old Israeli Arab from Ma'ale Iron, was fatally shot by Israel Border Police at the scene.
The attack
On 24 March 2025 at around 09:44 a.m. (UTC+02:00),[1] Karam Jabarin, a 25-year-old Israeli Arab from Ma'ale Iron in Northern Israel, murdered one person and injured another at Tishbi Junction on Route 66, near Yokneam Illit, Israel. He deliberately drove a Renault Fluence into a bus stop, striking a 20-year-old Israel Defense Forces (IDF) soldier.[2] He then exited the vehicle and stabbed the injured soldier multiple times before grabbing the soldier's rifle. After seizing the soldier's weapon, Jabarin opened fire on passing vehicles traveling in the opposite lane, fatally shooting a 86-year-old man, identified as Moshe "Musa" Horn from Kibbutz HaZore'a.[3][4][5]
Response
In response to the terror attack Border Police officers on their way to a training session in Beit She'an arrived promptly and shot Jabarin dead.[5] The female fighter who killed the terrorist later gave an interview to the Israeli Public Broadcasting Corporation.[6]
Official Statements
Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Sa'ar and the High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy/Vice-President of the European Commission for the European Union (EU) Kaja Kallas condemned the attack, attributing it to ongoing incitement by the Palestinian Authority.[7]
