- Shakaron, a father of six and information systems analyst at Hachshara Insurance, was described by community leaders as a beloved man; his wife, Dr. Mirav Shakaron, is a lecturer at Ariel University.
- Binyamin Regional Council head Israel Ganz stated the assailant used an M16 rifle, prompting Israeli security forces to capture the suspect three hours later after an extensive search.
