A Palestinian Arab was shot while attempting to run down Israelis near Samaria’s Hativa Junction Wednesday morning.

Three Israelis are being treated for shock.

The terrorist was moderately wounded and taken to a nearby hospital.

The vehicle was parked dozens of meters away from the Huwwara checkpoint, near a transport stop for Israeli residents of Judea and Samaria, the Palestinian Ma’an news agency reported.

Israeli forces sealed off all military checkpoints in front of traffic, Ma’an added.

Coincidentally, also on Wednesday morning, several regional council heads boycotted a meeting with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, claiming he had refused their requests to deal with the latest wave of terror attacks.
