Aslam Farouh, 26, an Arab with an Israeli residency card, lived between Kufr Akab, a neighbourhood of Jerusalem, and Ramallah, said the Shin Bet domestic security agency and Israel Police in a joint statement. “The suspect acted on his salafi-jihadi ideology, identifying with the Daesh organisation and acting alone after a long period of preparation in order to target Israeli citizens in Jerusalem,” the statement added, using another term for IS.
