Ben-Gvir welcomes Netanyahu's backing for terrorist execution

National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir endorsed the execution of the terrorist responsible for murdering Netanel Chkroun in Neveh Tzuf, two days prior to the report. Ben-Gvir believes that a strong deterrent, such as the gallows, is crucial in the fight against terrorism. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu also expressed support for this viewpoint, stating that no terrorist is beyond the consequences of their actions.

After the deadly shooting attack and attempted car ramming near Jenin, Netanyahu mentioned that security forces are actively searching for the terrorist who carried out the attack in Binyamin. Netanel's son, Yoav Chkroun, recounted his father's warning that saved his life during the terror attack. Yoav was in the car with his father when the terrorist opened fire, prompting Yoav to flee when he saw the terrorist close to the vehicle.
