Authorities are preparing to indict a Palestinian man for attempted murder and planning military activity after he set a vehicle on fire near a settlement in the West Bank and intended to stab residents. The incident occurred on October 26th near the Hanina Farm in the Samaria region. The suspect, a man in his 30s from the Palestinian village of Ramon, arrived armed with a gas lighter and a 10-centimeter knife. He used the lighter to ignite a car parked near the farm. Residents of the farm spotted the attacker and neutralized him before he could carry out his plan to stab someone with the knife. The attacker sustained minor injuries and was taken for medical treatment. During his interrogation, the suspect stated, "I set fire to a vehicle near a tent of Jewish settlers and at the same time planned to stab a settler." The investigation, which involved the Benjamin station police, forensic investigators, and the Shin Bet security agency, recovered the lighter and the knife. His arrest has been extended multiple times, and a prosecutor's statement has now been filed against him, with a request to keep him in custody until the legal proceedings conclude.
