Today, Saturday, the Israeli occupation forces arrested a Palestinian near the city of Ramallah in the central occupied West Bank, on the pretext that he attempted to carry out a run-over attack.
The Israeli army said – in a statement published on its account on the X platform – that it had received a report of an attempted ramming attack at a gas station in the Eli settlement (northeast of Ramallah Governorate), while Palestinian platforms published scenes – quoted from Israeli media – of “a Palestinian vehicle storming” the gas station in the settlement.
