Double Blast in West Bank: Car Bombs Rock Gush Etzion and Karmei Tzur; Involved Militants Killed
Late Friday night, the West Bank's Gush Etzion and Karmei Tzur were hit by a double blast as two car bombs detonated in a coordinated attack.
The explosions resulted in the deaths of the Palestinian terrorists responsible.
At a gas station near Gush Etzion, a car bomb exploded, and the attacking terrorist was shot dead by responding troops.
A soldier and a reservist officer sustained injuries, likely due to friendly fire.
In a separate incident 20 minutes later, another terrorist's car exploded within the Karmei Tzur settlement.
Local security forces pursued and neutralised the attacker, with one guard sustaining light injuries.
The coordinated attacks highlight the escalating violence and security challenges in the region.
