Lubin was a US citizen and a Lone Soldier who was living in Kibbutz Sa’ad. The young police officer moved to Israel in August 2021 to enlist in the Israel Defense Forces. In March 2022, she was drafted to Israel’s Border Police.

Police arrested a second suspect accused of aiding the terrorist in his attack.

May Elisheva’s memory be a blessing.
