Two West Bank Palestinians working in Israel illegally reportedly rammed vehicles into children as the school day was ending in the city of Ra’anana this week.
According to The Times of Israel, the perpetrators “seized at least three vehicles and rammed pedestrians in several locations in the city, also stabbing one or more of their victims, according to police, medics, and eyewitnesses.”
Reports claim at least 17 people were injured, and an elderly woman was killed in the attack.
The two suspects, Ahmed Zidat and Mahmoud Zidad, both had allegedly been blacklisted for entering Israel numerous times.
“According to reports, one of the terrorists stabbed a driver on the city’s Haharoshet Street before stealing the car and driving it into three people,” the outlet said.
“The terrorist then got stuck and abandoned the car, before stealing a second vehicle and continuing on, driving down the central Ahuza Street and ramming into at least one other group of people, witnesses said.”
