"After an initial assessment, we conclude that it is likely that two terrorists arrived at the compound and shot an Israeli civilian. Unfortunately, the civilian, as I mentioned earlier, is no longer alive. Two citizens were present in the compound. It appears that one of them is a civilian and the other is a soldier. We have now received their initial accounts. They shot the terrorists and eliminated them."

STORYLINE:
Two attackers killed a 22-year-old Israeli man at an Israeli supermarket in a settlement in the Israeli-occupied West Bank on Thursday afternoon, according to Israel’s Magen David Adom emergency rescue services.

Israeli police said two people in a stolen vehicle began attacking a security guard at the supermarket.

Paramedics said people on site shot and killed the two attackers.

Police did not release information about the attackers, but the Israeli military said forces are setting up roadblocks around the Palestinian town of Halhul, which is located around 10 kilometers (6 miles) from the supermarket.

Earlier Thursday, a 55-year-old Palestinian man was killed in the West Bank, the Palestinian Health Ministry.

The Israeli military said the man was shot after stabbing a soldier in the village of Rumana. The soldier suffered moderate wounds.

The war in Gaza has sparked a surge of violence in the West Bank, with the Israeli military carrying out large-scale operations targeting militants that have killed hundreds of Palestinians and displaced tens of thousands.

That has coincided with a rise in settler violence and Palestinian attacks on Israelis. Palestinian militants from the West Bank have also attacked and killed Israelis in Israel and the West Bank as tensions simmer.

The war began after Hamas attacked Israel in 2023, killing around 1,200 people and taking 251 others hostage. Most have been released in earlier ceasefires. Israel responded with an offensive that has killed more than 57,000 Palestinians, more than half of them women and children, according to Gaza’s Health Ministry.
