Listen Later

Welcome to The Times of Israel’s Daily Briefing, your 15-minute audio update on what’s happening in Israel, the Middle East, and the Jewish world, from Sunday through Thursday.

Military reporter Emanuel Fabian and health reporter Nathan Jeffay join host Amanda Borschel-Dan. Political correspondent Carrie Keller-Lynn reports in from Lviv.

We begin with Fabian's updates on the tragic terror attack, in which an Israeli Arab killed four and wounded two others. It is the deadliest attack on Israeli civilians since June 2016. What do we know about the attacker?

Keller-Lynn gives her final report from Lviv as she begins to make her way back home to Israel. We hear an interview she conducted with Dr. Adam Goldstein yesterday from the Israeli field hospital an hour and a half outside of Lviv.

Jeffay breaks down the reported increase of coronavirus cases in Israel. Can we see a roll-back of restrictions' roll-back ahead of Passover?

We hear about sobering research about a sharp decline in teens' mental health during the ongoing pandemic. What does this mean?

Discussed articles include:

4 killed, 2 wounded in stabbing attack at Beersheba mall; terrorist shot dead

Terrorist was called a ‘ticking bomb’ in the past, was sentenced to 4 years
