The terrorists have been aiming laser beams on drivers in order to temporarily disorient them and cause their cars to crash. Incidents have been reported in the Binyamin region near Jerusalem, with the perpetrators believed to be from the village of Al-Mughair.
"For the past several months, every evening, residents from the village engage in blinding terrorism on Jewish residents' cars on the roads, endangering their lives," one resident told Israel Hayom. "The security forces have been spreading leaflets rather than making arrests. What are they waiting for, for fatalities."
The residents of the village have also been repeatedly engaged in rock-throwing attacks.
The IDF said in a statement that "recently this new development has emerged involving suspected perpetrators from al-Mugheir. We treat this with the utmost seriousness and have been acting in a variety of ways with the rest of the security agencies."
