4 years too late: Muslim terrorist who murdered Eitam and Naama Henkin dies in custody

A Muslim terrorist member of the terror cell who murdered Israeli couple Eitam and Naama Henkin in a shooting attack while they were driving home with their four young children, has finally died in custody at Assaf Harofeh hospital, the Israeli Prison Service announced.

Bassem a-Saih, a 46-year-old Hamas terrorist from Shechem, suffered from a chronic heart condition.

Eitam and Naama Henkin were murdered on October 1, 2015, while driving home with their children, when a five-member terror cell ambushed their vehicle between the Jewish communities of Itamar and Elon Moreh.

Eitam, a doctoral student at Tel Aviv University, also held American citizenship. Naama was a graphic designer. They were gunned down in front of their four children, who survived the terror attack unharmed.
