A Palestinian man will be indicted for attempting to carry out a stabbing attack and arson at a farm in the Benjamin region last month. The incident occurred when two assailants arrived at the "Hanina Farm" grazing grounds, setting a vehicle belonging to the farm ablaze. One of the attackers then drew a knife but was neutralized by residents, while the second fled.

Police responding to the scene collected evidence, including the lighter used for the arson and the knife found on the apprehended suspect. The man, identified as a resident of the Palestinian village of Ramun in his 30s, sustained minor injuries during his capture. He was treated at a hospital before being arrested.

During his interrogation, the suspect confessed, stating, "I set fire to a vehicle near a tent of Jewish settlers and at the same time planned to stab a settler." He is set to be charged with attempted murder and planning military activity.

The police stated that they and the Shin Bet will continue to work to thwart terrorism in the Judea and Samaria region, arresting and investigating those who attempt to harm civilians and security forces. They emphasized their commitment to ensuring public safety.
