An Israeli teenager was killed and one person was injured in a Palestinian terrorist attack in Samaria on Saturday.
The attack occurred near the Israeli town of Homesh, while three young men were conducting a security patrol of the perimeter around the Shuva Yisrael farm.
As the three young men were driving in an off-road vehicle, a Palestinian Arab terrorist driving in a car from the village of Beit Imrin accelerated towards them, catching the three off guard.
The terrorist rammed into the off-road vehicle, hitting two of the three men riding in the vehicle.
One person was critically injured, while a second was moderately injured. The third person in the vehicle was not injured.
Emergency first responders were called to the scene, along with Samaria Regional Council chairman Yossi Dagan, who personally rushed to the site of the attack to render assistance.
The critically injured victim soon succumbed to his injuries and was declared dead, while the moderately-injured man was rushed to a hospital for treatment.
The slain victim was identified as Yehuda Shmuel Sherman, 18, a resident of the town of Elon Moreh in Samaria. The second victim has been identified as his brother, Daniel Binyamin Sherman.
Yehuda Sherman is survived by his parents, Yehoshua and Sima Leah, and six brothers and sisters.
The IDF issued a statement Saturday, confirming the incident, adding that the terrorist was injured in the ramming.
“This is a very serious incident,” said Dagan. “We embrace and strengthen the families. We are facing a murderous and barbaric enemy whose goal is to murder Jews and thereby expel them from their land.”
“I say this clearly: we will never be broken. We will only grow stronger and build even more in northern Samaria—and in all of our Land of Israel.”
