The 30-year-old woman threw stones and attempted, according to the Israeli army, to stab soldiers at a crossroads near the village of Hares.

The incident occurred at the Gitai Avisar intersection on Tuesday.

The woman was a lawyer and a mother of three, according to Mayor Ahmed Abu Safiyeh in her hometown of Biddya on the Israeli-occupied West Bank.

Since the war in Gaza began in October 2023, after terrorist-stamped Hamas and other extremist groups' attacks on Israel, over 900 Palestinians have been killed by Israeli forces and settlers, according to the Palestinian health authority on the West Bank.
