October Worst Month For Terror in Nine Years
October was the worst month for terror in Israel in over nine years, the Israel Security Agency (ISA) stated on Monday.
According to the ISA data, there were a staggering 602 attacks in 30 days — more than during Operation Protective Edge (2014), Operation Pillar of Defense (2012), or Operation Cast Lead (2009).
During October, eleven Israelis were killed, compared with five in all of 2013; 80 civilians and security personnel were injured — compared with 63 in all of 2014, and 42 wounded in 2013.
The number exceeded the total number of attacks in entire years: in 2010 there were 455 attacks total, and in 2011 there were 511 attacks.
Of the 1,703 attacks in 2015, 778 were launched against Israelis since Rosh Hashanah until mid-October.
