The 2002 Metzer attack was a terrorist attack on Israeli civilians in Kibbutz Metzer, Israel that took place on 10 November 2002, during the Second Intifada. The victims included a family, Revital Ohayoun, the mother, and her two children, Matan, 5, and Noam, 4. Two other adults were killed by the assailant, including Tirza Damari, and Yitzhak Drori. Muhammad Naifeh, a commander in Fatah’s Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades, was arrested for having masterminded the attack and sentenced to 13 life sentences in Gilboa Prison for various terror attacks and shootings. Sirhan Sirhan, a Fatah terrorist was the assailant. He was killed in October 2003, while being pursued in his car in a joint operation by the Israel Defense Forces, Shin Bet and the Yamam. The attack resonated deeply with the Israeli public, particularly the murders of the family. The attack was harshly condemned by the United Nations and Israeli government.
What the highlighted wording does

㉓ Reviewed in the sweep
The 2002 Metzer attack killed five Israeli civilians, including a mother and her two children, at Kibbutz Metzer. The 2005 opening named the perpetrator, saying "Sirhan Sirhan Sirhan is a Palestinian militant responsible for an attack on the Israeli Kibbutz Metzer," and noted that a year later he was killed by the YAMAM. Today's opening calls him only "a Palestinian," though militant survives three times in the body. A reader today does not learn who carried out the attack or that Israeli forces killed him a year later.
