Israel Defense Forces soldiers operating in the Samaria terror hub of Tulkarem killed a Palestinian “who accelerated his vehicle toward them” in a threatening manner, the military said.

“The soldiers fired at the terrorist and neutralized him. No IDF injuries were reported,” stated the army.

Overnight on Sunday, the Israel Defense Forces thwarted two Palestinian terror attacks.

In the first incident, troops operating near Dura, located southwest of Hebron in Judea, identified a knife-wielding assailant running toward them and opened fire, killing him shortly after he was spotted.

In a separate incident near al-Ram, northeast of Jerusalem just beyond the Green Line, soldiers fired at a suspect who accelerated his vehicle toward them, posing an imminent threat. The assailant was shot and killed.

No IDF injuries were reported.
