“Bless you, my hero,” wrote Khadija Benguenna in a video posted to Facebook that showed security-camera footage of a 16-year-0ld Arab stabbing the officer in Nahariya on Nov. 27.

According to Israeli news website nrg, Benguenna had removed the comment by Nov. 28 but not the video. The video posted to Facebook has received nearly 70,000 “likes.”

In the video, the 16-year-old terrorist from a village in the Galilee is seen attacking a 37-year-old Border Police officer and stabbing the officer in the upper back before the officer breaks free and runs off camera as the attacker pursues him, still holding the knife.

The officer was lightly-to-moderately wounded  in the attack and the terrorist was arrested and is being interrogated.
