The search is underway in the Binyamin region for Binyamin Ahimeir, a 14-year-old Jewish shepherd who went missing this morning. Initial reports indicate that the shepherd departed at 6 a.m., but his flock returned to the village of Malachei HaShalom without him.

Kidnapping is suspected as there have been prior warnings about potential terrorist activity in the area over the past month. As the search intensifies, Israeli residents entered the Palestinian village of Al-Mughayyir, resulting in heavy clashes.

Please daven for the safe return of Binyamin ben Miriam.
