Channel 12 reported that "an Israeli settler was killed after being wounded in the stabbing and car-ramming attack in the southern West Bank."
Earlier, the Hebrew Broadcasting Authority reported that four Israeli settlers, including some in critical condition, were injured in the car-ramming and stabbing attack that took place at the Gush Etzion settlement junction south of Hebron in the West Bank, explaining that one person was seriously injured before his death was announced.
The commission noted that two settlers were seriously injured and a fourth was slightly injured, while the occupation army shot two attackers whose identities were not determined and whose fate was not mentioned.
She continued: "According to eyewitness accounts, the attack began with a car ramming. The two assailants then got out of the vehicle and began stabbing people at the intersection." Palestinian eyewitness accounts of the incident were not immediately available.
The operation comes at a time when the West Bank is witnessing an unprecedented escalation in attacks by Israeli settlers against Palestinians, their property, and their livelihoods.
The attacks by the Israeli occupation army and settlers together resulted in the martyrdom of at least 1,073 Palestinians, the injury of about 10,700, and the arrest of more than 20,500 others, during the two years of the war of extermination in Gaza.
The Israeli genocide in Gaza began on October 7, 2023, and stopped two years later under a ceasefire agreement, after leaving more than 69,000 Palestinian martyrs and more than 170,000 wounded, most of them children and women, with reconstruction costs estimated by the United Nations at about $70 billion.
