Five people were injured in a shooting attack near the Yehuda Junction in the Judea Brigade area on Friday morning, with two sustaining critical injuries. IDF forces responded to the scene, engaging in a prolonged exchange of fire and a pursuit that resulted in the elimination of two assailants. The IDF is continuing to conduct searches in the area.
Paramedics reported that the other three injured individuals were evacuated to Shaare Zedek Medical Center with moderate and light wounds. The incident occurred approximately one month after a reservist fighter, Neria Leiter, son of Ambassador Yechiel Leiter, was injured in a car-ramming attack at the Beit Sira checkpoint on Route 443 in the Binyamin region. In that earlier incident, an assailant drove a vehicle at a police car, and was subsequently killed by forces at the scene.
