Two killed in Hadera attack linked to suspected Palestinian assailant

Two killed in suspected Palestinian ramming and knife attack in Israel

Two people have been killed in a suspected Palestinian ramming and knife attack in the Israeli city of Hadera. The incident took place on Sunday evening when a car driven by a Palestinian man rammed into a group of Israeli civilians at a busy intersection before the driver exited the vehicle and began stabbing bystanders.

The two individuals killed in the attack have been identified as Israeli citizens, a 46-year-old woman, and a 12-year-old boy. Several others were injured, some critically, and have been taken to nearby hospitals for treatment.

The driver of the car was shot dead by Israeli security forces at the scene. The assailant has been identified as a 23-year-old Palestinian man from the West Bank. The motive behind the attack remains unclear, but the incident is being investigated as a terrorist attack by Israeli authorities.

Palestinian militant group Hamas has praised the attack, describing it as a heroic act of resistance against the Israeli occupation. However, the Palestinian Authority has not officially claimed responsibility for the incident.

Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett has condemned the attack, vowing to take strong action in response. He has called for increased security measures to prevent further violence and ensure the safety of Israeli citizens.

The incident has heightened tensions in the region, with concerns of potential retaliation and further violence from both Israeli and Palestinian groups.
