A terrorist on Tuesday evening attempted to carry out a stabbing attack at a bus stop at the Eshtamoa Junction in the southern Hebron Hills.
The terrorist was neutralized.
Soldiers passing the junction in their vehicle noticed a terrorist at a bus stop, exited their vehicle, and walked towards the terrorist in order to question him.
In response, the terrorist pulled out a knife and attempted to stab one of the soldiers. The other soldiers worked forcefully to neutralize the terrorist by firing at him.
None of the IDF soldiers were injured. A military doctor declared the terrorist's death.
