A car set alight by a Palestinian in the central West Bank's Hananya Farm settlement (Israel Police)
A knife-wielding Palestinian set fire to a car belonging to a resident of an illegal Israeli farming outpost in the central West Bank a short while ago and threatened settlers, who then rammed him with their car, “neutralizing the continued risk from his actions,” police say.
No settlers from the Hananya Farm outpost were injured, police say, adding that officers have arrived on the scene and are investigating.
The suspect’s condition is unclear from the police statement.
