Two Israelis have been critically wounded in a taking pictures assault late Wednesday within the northern occupied West Bank.
The assault on a car occurred on Route 446 between the Palestinian city of Bruqin and the unlawful Israeli settlement of Peduel, in response to Israel’s emergency medical service Magen David Adom.
The Israeli military mentioned it has launched a manhunt for the perpetrator.
The Palestinian group Hamas mentioned “the heroic shooting operation targeting a settlers’ vehicle near the town of Bruqin, west of Salfit, comes as a response to the escalating crimes and ongoing aggression by the occupation against our people in Gaza and the occupied West Bank, as well as against our prisoners and holy sites.”
At least 962 Palestinians have been killed and greater than 7,000 injured in assaults by the Israeli military and unlawful settlers within the West Bank because the begin of the onslaught within the Gaza Strip in October 2023, in response to Palestinian figures.
The International Court of Justice declared in July 2024 that Israel’s decades-long occupation of Palestinian land is against the law and demanded the evacuation of all settlements within the West Bank and East Jerusalem.
