Five Israelis were wounded in a terrorist attack on Tuesday near the Rihan Crossing in northwestern Samaria.

In an initial shooting, terrorists driving in a vehicle opened fire on a passing car near the Palestinian-controlled town of Yabad.

Magen David Adom emergency medical personnel treated the victim, a man in his 30s, for a wound to his upper body before evacuating him to the hospital in stable condition.

“Remember what Amalek did to you by the way, when you came forth out of Egypt; How he met you by the way, and struck at your rear, all who were feeble behind you, when you were faint and weary; and he did not fear God” Deut. 25:17-18

Four soldiers were wounded by subsequent gunfire targeting their military vehicle, according to the IDF.

The troops were evacuated for treatment in moderate condition.

Israeli forces launched a manhunt for the perpetrator or perpetrators, who fled in their car.

On May 30, a 32-year-old Israeli man was killed in a nearby terrorist shooting, close to the Jewish community of Hermesh in northwestern Samaria.

Meir Tamari sustained a bullet wound to the upper body. He received treatment at the scene before being evacuated by helicopter to Hillel Yaffe Medical Center in Hadera, where he was pronounced dead.

Tamari is survived by his wife and two children, ages 1 and 3.
