A 55-year-old Israeli man was severely wounded in a stabbing attack Tuesday afternoon in a community in Samaria.

The terrorist stabbed the Israeli civilian and then fled.

Israel Defense Forces personnel administered first aid and then quickly transported the victim, who was conscious, to a hospital for additional care.

The IDF captured the terrorist in al-Funduq, a town located eight miles southwest of Nablus.

“Nablus bid farewell to our martyrs today. Our Palestinian nation bids farewell to its martyrs,” Touma-Sliman wrote in a Facebook post that included a photo from the subsequent funeral.
