Suspected terrorist in child’s killing identified

The assailant who killed 12-year-old Yehoshua Aharon Tuvia Simcha in a shooting attack near a military checkpoint outside Jerusalem has been identified by authorities on Thursday as Izz al-Din Malouh, a resident of Beit Awwa near Hebron.
Security officials said Malouh attempted to surrender at a nearby Palestinian police station, but his weapon was confiscated, and he was denied entry.
A security source emphasized that "contrary to false reports, the assailant was not granted protection by Palestinian security forces at any stage."
