Erez Levanon, a settler from Bat Ayin, a community in the Gush Etzion settlement bloc, was found stabbed to death Sunday night in a ravine north of Hebron. Sources in the security establishment said on Sunday morning that Levanon's stabbing was a terror attack. Security officials said that Levanon, father of three, 42, was found with a fatal stab wound to the neck.

Shortly before 11 p.m., Judea and Samaria Police received reports from what they described as "foreign channels" that an Israeli had been found dead in the Hebron area. In fact, a number of Palestinians allegedly reported the murder - or the discovery of the body - to Palestinian Authority security forces, who relayed the message to the Israel Police.
