Graphic footage, which has been blurred, is published by Hebrew-language media showing the moment of the stabbing attack near the Palestinian village of al-Auja this morning.
An Israeli man had stopped at a store along Route 90 when he was attacked.
The video shows the assailant waiting near the man’s car as he enters the store. When he returns to his car, the attacker rushes him from behind with a knife, stabbing him multiple times.
