Police Commissioner Yohanan Danino held a meeting Saturday to assess the security situation following the death of Hir Alhamdan, 22, and the ensuing riots and rock-throwing attacks in the Galilee, Samaria and Jerusalem, that broke out.
The conclusion of those attending the meeting was to to raise the alert level in the country to Gimmel (C). This means that police forces will increase their presence at specific points of friction as well as the cities beleaguered by violence.
Hir Alhamdan, a resident of Kafr Kana in the Galilee, was shot and killed by police on Friday night. Alhamdan reportedly lunged at a police car in an attack pose and repeatedly made stabbing motions toward the car's window.
Hamdan was buried in Qana Kheir on Saturday afternoon, but huge protests erupted shortly after his death.
About 5,000 residents of Kafr Kana demonstrated Saturday in protest of the shooting. Dozens of youths set tires alight and hurled rocks and firebombs at police. Some bore signs saying “His only crime was being an Arab,” and others shouted “Zionists, get out of our lives.”
During the demonstration, three locals were arrested on suspicion of rioting and disturbances.
One hour after the riot, two forest fires broke out – at Akada and Mei Ami near Umm el Fahm. The suspicion is that they were acts of arson carried out in revenge for the young man's death.

Prayers for Israel.
I honestly don’t see how they exist in Israel, surrounded by Muslims who hate Jews and anyone not Muslim. I guess they just exist on a day by day basis. In reality, all we have is today. I have been hearing that Israel is forming defense bonds with two of it’s neighbors, Saudi Arabia and Egypt. The three are making plans on how to overcome and destroy ISIS. Israel is smart to find newer, more reliable partners than solely the United States, at least during this president’s stay in office.
To me...it would be a scary way to live. But I guess if it all you know that is the way it is.
I had a friend that went there a couple of years ago. She said it is a different world than we live in.
This administration won’t always be in power. I pray the next is more supportive.
Well, they really can't. Some day, God will wipe Islam off the face of the earth. Until then, there will generally be a low grade war. The Muzzies will not stop till they are dead. I hope we can help a bunch of them into their graves.
