Jerusalem, 6 July, 2016 (TPS) -- A vehicle driven by a Palestinian collided head on with an IDF vehicle at the entrance to the community of Neve Daniel in Gush Etzion shortly after 3:00 p.m., in what the IDF and police are suspecting was an intentional attack.

The military vehicle turned over and three IDF soldiers were lightly wounded. They received treatment by Magen David Adom (MDA) medics, and two of them were taken to hospital. The Palestinian attacker was seriously wounded in his head from the collision, and was taken to hospital as well.

Though the incident first seemed to be an accident, an initial investigation by the IDF and the police suggested that the collision was intentional and that this was in fact a terror attack.
