An Israeli man killed in a West Bank shooting attack earlier today is named by authorities as Elhanan Klein, from the settlement of Einav.

Klein, 29, was returning home from reserve duty, according to the Samaria Regional Council.

He is survived by his wife and three children.

The attack took place on the Route 557 highway, close to the Palestinian town of Bayt Lid.

His car overturned after being shot at by Palestinian terrorists, and medics pronounced him dead at the scene.

The IDF said it launched a manhunt for the suspects behind the attack.
