IDF soldiers have thwarted a ramming attack near the central West Bank town of Ya’abed, shooting two of the Palestinians in the vehicle that targeted them, according to Hebrew media reports.

The two suspects are being treated by medics at the scene. There were no injuries to the Israeli soldiers.

Earlier this week, the IDF said it had “foiled” a terror attack at the Tapuah Junction where soldiers thought that as the car slowed and rolled down a window, one of the men inside had a gun. They shot and killed both of the Palestinians inside. Shortly thereafter, it was discovered that the victims were unarmed members of the PA intelligence.
