The Israeli District Attorney's Office in Jerusalem filed an indictment Friday against a settler from the Itamar settlement, approximately 30 years old. The charges relate to serious violent acts and obstruction of justice following a shooting incident about a month prior in the village of Aqrabah. The incident targeted a vehicle carrying a young woman, who sustained serious injuries.
The indictment follows a joint investigation by the Central Investigations Division in the West Bank and the Shin Bet security agency. The investigation focused on suspicions of extremist violence and exceeding authority.
During the investigation in October, two security personnel from the West Bank were arrested on suspicion of involvement. The incident was reported on September 18, when an approximately 18-year-old woman was shot and wounded. She was transported to medical treatment in serious but stable condition with multiple gunshot wounds.
Investigators collected evidence and testimonies. On October 11, the main suspect, the settler from Itamar, was identified and arrested. Weapons and a vehicle suspected of being used in the attack were seized. The prosecution has requested the suspect be held in custody until the legal proceedings conclude.
