In the aftermath of a car-ramming incident near the Israeli settlement of Bqa’ot, the Israeli military reportedly opened fire on the vehicle’s driver, alleging an attempted attack.

Meanwhile, Palestinian media reported the death of the perpetrator involved in the Jordan Valley ramming, highlighting the Israeli authorities’ alleged prevention of ambulance access to the scene.

Three Killed in Jerusalem Attack

This incident follows the killing of at least three Israelis and the injury of several others in a shooting attack in the western part of Jerusalem.

Israeli authorities reported three fatalities and 12 injuries, including severe cases, in an attack carried out by two Palestinian brothers at the northwestern entrance of Jerusalem. Israeli police announced the elimination of the attackers.

According to the Israeli military radio, the assailants were two brothers and former prisoners affiliated with the Islamic Resistance Movement, “Hamas,” from the village of Sur Baher, south of Jerusalem.

Following the attack, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu stated that his government would continue to expand the distribution of weapons to Israeli citizens. Netanyahu also vowed to pursue every member of Hamas “everywhere in Jerusalem, Gaza, and the West Bank.”
