A Palestinian suspect who attempted to carry out a car-ramming at the Jit Junction in the West Bank was shot dead by troops, the military says.

One Israeli man in his 20s was seriously wounded in the incident, medics say. According to a preliminary investigation by the army, he was hit in the crossfire as the soldiers opened fire on the suspected attacker.

Magen David Adom took the man to a hospital for treatment.
