The Halamish attack, or the Halamish massacre was a lone-wolf attack on a Jewish family in the West Bank Israeli settlement of Halamish (also known as Neve Tzuf), that took place on 21 July 2017, in which three Israelis were stabbed to death and one severely wounded. The victims of the attack were Yosef Salomon, his daughter Chaya and son Elad, the three who were murdered in the attack, and Tova Salomon, Yosef's wife, who was injured but survived. The assailant, Omar al-Abed, a Palestinian from nearby village, was shot by a neighbor and was arrested. Israel's Channel 2 reported the day after the stabbings that the attacker "identified with Hamas" and had previously been arrested several times by Palestinian security forces.
