An Israeli man was killed and three others were injured after a Palestinian terrorist opened fire on them near the West Bank settlement of Kiryat Arba on Saturday night. One of the men, a medic with the Magen David Adom emergency first responder service, was seriously injured by the attacker as he helped the victims. The shooter was killed by an off-duty soldier who lives in the area of the attack. A Palestinian man also was reported to be injured in the attack.

Truth and understanding
The Media Line's intrepid correspondents are in Israel, Gaza, Lebanon, Syria and Pakistan providing first-person reporting.
They all said they cover it.
We see it.
We report with just one agenda: the truth.
The attacker was named as Muhammad al-Jabari, who is claimed by Hamas as a member. Al-Jabari opened fire at a Jewish father and son who had been shopping at a Palestinian-owned convenience store, between Kiryat Arba and Hebron. He then opened fire on first responders.
In the wake of the attack, far-right politician Itamar Ben-Gvir, who lives in Kiryat Arba, claimed that his home was the target of the attack, though this does not appear to be the case. Early on Sunday morning, Israel Defense Forces soldiers measured al-Jabari’s home in Hebron for demolition.
