Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu:
"The abominable murder of the boy Binyamin Achimair 14-years-old is a serious crime. I send my heartfelt condolences to his family.
IDF and Shin Bet forces are in an extensive pursuit of the despicable murderers and all those who cooperated with them.
We will get to the murderers and their helpers as we do to anyone who harms the citizens of the State of Israel.
The IDF, the Shin Bet and the Israel Police in the Judea & Samaria district carry out intense operational and intelligence activity in the entire area and in the Palestinian villages.
I call on all citizens of Israel to allow the security forces to do their work unhindered, so that we can come to terms with the abominable murderers and their assistants quickly."
