Security forces shot a Palestinian attacker today after he tried to ram and stab soldiers near Shavei Shomron, on the road between Mangalim Junction and Deir Sharaf.
According to Hillel Biton Rosen, the suspect was observed walking suspiciously around the town square before suddenly drawing a knife and charging at the troops. The soldiers responded immediately, opening fire and stopping the attack. No Israeli forces were injured in the incident.
