The mistaken killing of an Eritrean man by Israeli forces during a terror attack in Beer Sheva on Sunday evening is covered by the Times, Guardian, Telegraph, Evening Standard, Metro and the online edition of the Financial Times. The incident has caused widespread outrage within Israel, as several passers-by were videoed beating the incapacitated man who was thought to have been a terrorist, after he had been shot by security forces. Most reports highlight that Israeli police are searching for those who participated in the attack, while some point out that in the midst of the melee other members of the public sought to protect the man.

The Financial Times online also reports that Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has ordered a halt to police construction of a temporary security barrier in Jerusalem, designed to protect residents of a Jewish neighbourhood from firebomb and rock throwing attack. The decision came after ministers expressed concern that the wall may be construed as redrawing Jerusalem’s boundaries. The same report says that Israel has summoned the French Ambassador after Paris proposed that international observers should be stationed at the Temple Mount, a policy strongly opposed by Israel.

The Independent i reports that ISIS has released a video praising the current wave of terror attacks against Israelis and urging Palestinians to attack Israelis including beheading them.

The Independent online includes a video which shows an Israeli yacht which stumbled across a capsized boat near the Greek coast and rescued eleven refugees from Syria and elsewhere.

The Telegraph online says that around 70,000 Syrian civilians have fled the southern Aleppo countryside following the start of an assault by President Assad’s forces, who are being aided by Russian air strikes.

The Financial Times reports that Egypt’s government is scrambling to improve a very low turn-out in parliamentary elections, by granting a half-day holiday for civil servants in an attempt to boost traffic at polling stations.

In the Israeli media, fall-out from the terror attack at Beer Sheva’s central bus station on Sunday evening is the top item. Israel Hayom highlights that Defence Minister Moshe Ya’alon has pledged that those who attacked an Eritrean man suspected of having been a terrorist, will be prosecuted. Meanwhile, Yediot Ahronot and Haaretz headline the revelation that the actual terrorist was a local Bedouin man. The Bedouin, although Arabic-speaking, are considered to be loyal Israeli citizens, with many serving in the IDF. Bedouin leaders held a press conference yesterday to publicly condemn the attack. The front page headline in Maariv summarises the mood, “Beer Sheva Terror Attack: The Investigation, the Shock and the Shame.”

Writing in Yediot Ahronot, Yossi Yehoshua discusses a wider phenomenon of terror attacks being perpetrated by Israeli citizens. He notes that “the number of terrorists with blue [Israeli] ID cards has risen to 22” during the past two weeks. He argues that “None have a security record, all were inspired by the social networks and all made a decision on the spur of the moment.”

Meanwhile, Maariv says that Israeli officials believe that Hamas is attempting to launch suicide bombings in the West Bank, in what would be a significant intensification of the current violence. Media reports this morning say that Hamas’s senior West Bank chief has been arrested by Israeli forces.

Israel Radio news says that in light of the current violence, United Nations Secretary General Ban Ki-moon will make a surprise visit to the region today, in order to speak with both Israeli and Palestinian leaders.
