Palestinian Terrorist Stabs Israeli Man in West Bank Farm
A Palestinian assailant stabbed an Israeli man multiple times on Tuesday morning near the settlement of Ma'oz Yehuda in the West Bank, before fleeing the scene. The attack occurred around 10:30 AM when the perpetrator arrived by car at the farm, located near the Palestinian village of 'Azzun. The victim, a man in his early twenties, sustained several stab wounds, reportedly breaking the knife during the assault, and was evacuated to Beilinson Hospital in Petah Tikva in serious condition.
Emergency medical services, including MDA paramedics and a military medical unit, provided initial treatment at the scene. Avi'al Mamliya, an EMT who responded, described finding the victim conscious with multiple stab wounds. He was then transported to the hospital.
Following the stabbing, Israeli security forces, including the IDF and police, launched a manhunt for the suspect. The IDF imposed a closure on nearby Palestinian villages as part of the search operation and initiated a pursuit of the attacker. The incident occurred amid ongoing tensions in the region.
