Israeli man moderately wounded in West Bank stabbing attack, medics say

An Israeli man was moderately wounded in a stabbing attack at a shopping center in the West Bank. According to his brother, the man was driving with his pregnant wife and two daughters to Tiberias, a city in northern Israel, and stopped to buy cigarettes. The IDF said soldiers sealed off the area and special forces were searching for the suspect, as reported by Haaretz.

In a separate incident, a four-year-old Palestinian boy, Mohammad Abdel-Salam Taha, was killed in an Israeli attack on a building in Zawayda, Gaza. According to Reuters, citing Palestinian health officials, the child was wounded along with six others by flying debris and shrapnel, and later pronounced dead at hospital.

Israeli forces also carried out raids in the occupied West Bank, arresting 13 Palestinians, including a child. The raids involved attacks on property, including the burning of a residential room, a vehicle, and agricultural land, as well as the destruction of irrigation pipes and trees.
