The Jerusalem bombing attack in November

On November 23, Israeli citizens Tadasa Tashume Ben Ma'ada and Arye Shechopek were murdered after explosives placed by Faroukh detonated at two bus stops at the entrance to Jerusalem and in the Ramot neighborhood of the city.

According to the indictment against Faroukh, the terrorist had adopted the worldview of the ISIS terrorist organization and had studied mechanical engineering at an Israeli college.

A day after the attacks, Faroukh sent a message via Telegram to the ISIS-affiliated Nasher News claiming responsibility for the attack.
