Israeli forces arrested a Palestinian gunman who allegedly shot three Israelis in the West Bank. The injured include a 35-year-old man and two minor girls. The Palestinian gunman reportedly took refuge in a mosque in Bethlehem, later surrendering to Israeli forces after they called on him to surrender over loudspeakers surrounding the mosque in Bethlehem.
Emergency services said the one-year-old man was in a serious stable with gunshot wounds while two girls, nine-years-old and 14-years-old, suffered minor shrapnel injuries. The army announced that a man suspected of carrying out the attack had been arrested in Bethlehem. According to a military source, Israeli forces had received intelligence that the suspect was hiding in the city’s mosque. After cordoning off the mosque and evacuating people, the suspect turned himself inside. According to the source, an M-16 rifle was found in the suspect’s car.
The IDF’s preliminary investigation revealed that the assailant arrived at the junction in a car and fired at the three Israelis while they were inside their vehicle. The army is also alert to the possibility that another person was involved in the attack.
