פיגוע
This past Wednesday evening four Jews (civilians) were murdered by Arab terrorists near חֶבְרוֹן (khehv-ROHN) - Hebron.
Modern Hebrew's word for such an attack is פִּגּוּע (pee-GOO-ah). The word comes from the root פ.ג.ע., which bears the concept of harm.
May we hear of no such פיגועים anywhere in the world, this coming year, or ever again.
