(Ilana Messika/TPS) The Jerusalem District Court has sentenced a 14-year-old Jerusalemite to 12 years in prison for the October 2015 stabbing of an Israeli boy.

Ahmad Manasra was 13 when he and his 15-year-old cousin Hassan stabbed and critically wounded 13-year-old Naor Shalev, who was riding his bicycle in the Pisgat Ze’ev neighborhood of the capital, as well as another 21-year-old Israeli.

Shalev recovered and celebrated his bar mitzva two months later. Hassan Manasra was killed by police during the attack.

The attack made international headlines when Palestinian Authority Chairman Mahmoud Abbas accused Israel of “executing” Manasra “in cold blood,” while he was in fact alive and being treated for serious wounds at an Israeli hospital. After photos emerged of the boy recovering at Jerusalem’s Hadassah Medical Center, Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu blasted Abbas for “incitement.”

Over the month following Manasra’s attack, three more stabbing attacks occurred in Israel, including another one in Pisgat Ze’ev committed by two Palestinian youths aged 12 and 13, who stabbed a security guard on a light rail train.

Following the wave of attacks, Likud MK Anat Berko tabled a bill to revise sentencing guidelines to allow minors to be jailed beginning at age 12 for “nationalistically motivated” crimes. For other crimes, the minimum age for a jail sentence remains 14.
