An Israeli settler was killed and another one was injured in a shooting attack that took place Thursday near Kedumim settlement, built on the lands of Qalqilya governorate, to the north of the occupied Palestinian West Bank.

A Palestinian man drove his vehicle into the settlement, opened fire on the two settlers and attempted to flee, but an Israeli military force chased and killed him, the Israeli occupation army radio said.

This attack followed the Israeli military offensive on Jenin city and refugee camp, which lasted for two days and resulted in 12 deaths and over 100 injuries, 20 of whom were in serious condition.
