Asher Gross terror attack

On July 7, 1983, Asher Gross, an armed 18-year-old American-Israeli student at the Israeli settler Yeshiva Shavei-Hevron Hebrew: ישיבת שבי חברון, was stabbed in the stomach multiple times by a team of three men and two lookouts, near the town market after he missed his ride. His Uzi submachine gun was taken, but Gross' friends who saw the attack chased after the hit squad's car. Nearby Israeli soldiers were warned to stay in their positions, and could not respond. A local Arab, mistaking Gross for someone familiar, took him to the Princess Alia hospital. At the hospital, upon recognizing that Gross was Jewish, seeing his Tzitzit strings, they refused to accept him, and he died. There was a failed attempt to get rid of his body. Gross Square in Hebron where the stabbing occurred is named after him.[5]
