Israel: eight wounded soldiers after an attack against food car

The Israeli army said that eight soldiers had been injured during an attack against the divagant car against a shelter in the center of Israel, this Thursday, July 24.

“Two soldiers were moderately injured and six slightly during an attack on the railway car at the Beit cover crossroads,” said a military statement.

“The VI (the injured), lying on the floor, injured, in blood, legs, head, in the face,” says Kineret Hanuka, a 45 -year -old seller.

The driver hunted

She said a man aboard a car “cut it” before accelerating “completely” towards the bus stop, near the city of Kfar Yona. According to the police, the vehicle was found, but not the driver and a human hunt was thrown.

“The police are carrying out investigations along the roads and in the open areas, with the help of helicopters, patrol motorcycles and canine unit,” he said.

A police spokesman Dean Elsdunne said that “a terrorist had directed a terrorist attack that ran with his vehicle in people waiting for the bus.”

The attack took place at the crossroads of the Beit cover, 25 kilometers north of Tel Aviv, near Kfar Yona. A safety cable was placed around the bus stop.

An “intolerable act”

The Magen First Aid Organization, David Adom, announced that “paramedics and rescuers had transported eight injured hospitals, including two young people in their average state.”

The French embassy in Israel condemned the attack in a statement, qualifying it as a “intolerable act.” Violence has increased in Israel and the West Bank occupied since the beginning of the war in Gaza, caused by an unprecedented attack against Hamas in the Israeli soil on October 7, 2023.

In Israel, at least 32 people, whose soldiers have died in attacks perpetrated by Palestinians, according to official Israeli figures compiled by AFP. Last March, a teenager was killed when, according to the police, a Palestinian deliberately hurried with his civilian car at a bus stop in northern Israel.

In the West Bank, a territory occupied by Israel since 1967, at least 960 Palestinians, including many combatants, but also many civilians, were killed by soldiers or Israeli settlers, according to an AFP count of the data of the Palestinian authority.

And at least 36 Israelis, including civilians and soldiers, were killed in Palestinian attacks or in Israeli military operations, according to official Israeli data.
