JERUSALEM / ISTANBUL

An illegal Israeli settler was killed, and three others were injured in an attack near a settlement in the occupied West Bank on Tuesday, medics said.

Israel’s national ambulance service MDA said an Israeli man was stabbed and killed near the Gush Etzion settlement, south of East Jerusalem, in the southern West Bank.

MDA said three other settlers were moderately injured in the attack.

Israel’s public broadcaster KAN said that attackers armed with knives drove their car into pedestrians near the settlement, with one getting out and stabbing settlers.
