The incident took place near the Jewish settlement of Mevo Dotan, west of the Palestinian town of Jenin.
One of the victims was reportedly pronounced dead at the scene. A second died a short time later, after attempts to save his life failed.
The motorist was detained shortly after and was being treated for injuries without elaborating on their cause.
Israel’s Magen David Adom ambulance service said there were two people injured in the incident but did not confirm the fatalities. The Israeli military said in a preliminary report that the incident appeared to have been a car-ramming.
Car-ramming attacks have been used by Palestinians against Israelis in violence that has simmered since 2015.
this is all an after effect of the Elor Azaria case where soldiers don’t shoot and then possibly kill and be put in jail after a kangaroo trial.
Sad! But Y dont these people get this? Remove urself and ur loved ones from these settlements or face the sad reality of the Palestinians wrath. Theyre animals. Yes. So get the H otta there.
The Shin Bet will find out who was responsible, and either capture or kill them, as well as arrest anyone else who had any connection with that attack. Then, it will demolish the home of the perpetrators, as well as anyone else who assisted.
