Gush Etzion, Israel - Nov. 18, 2025  -  -An Israeli man in his 30s was murdered on Tuesday afternoon at the Gush Etzion Junction when two terrorists drove their vehicle into pedestrians at the intersection.

The terrorists then exited their car, armed with knives, and attempted to stab additional victims. The terrorists were neutralized at the scene.

Magen David Adom medics and paramedics, together with an IDF medical team, pronounced the death of a man around 30 who was wounded in the stabbing.

Three additional wounded were evacuated to hospitals in Jerusalem: a woman around 40 in serious condition, a man around 30, and a 15-year-old boy, both in moderate condition with penetrating injuries.

MDA Paramedic Uriel Lavi said: “When we arrived at the scene, we understood it was a severe incident and immediately began assessing the victims, who had penetrating injuries. A man about 60 was lying on the side of the road, unconscious. After medical checks, we unfortunately had to pronounce him dead at the scene. In addition, we provided medical treatment to three injured people, a woman, a man, and a teenager. The team with me placed the man and the teenager into the mobile intensive care unit and evacuated them to the hospital in stable condition and conscious.”

Senior MDA EMT Itzik Itach said: “I arrived and saw a very complex scene. We joined the security forces and together provided medical treatment to the three injured. Near the bus stop, a 15-year-old boy was lying semi-conscious with stab wounds. A 58-year-old woman was lying on the sidewalk at the junction with limb injuries, and several meters away a 30-year-old man was sitting fully conscious, suffering from stab wounds. While performing lifesaving treatment, including bleeding control and bandaging, we placed them into the intensive care units and evacuated them to Jerusalem hospitals in serious and moderate condition.”

MDA Paramedic Elad Pas said: “This was a very severe attack. We arrived with large forces and identified four victims. A man about 30 was lying unconscious with stab wounds; after medical assessments, we were forced to pronounce him dead at the scene. At the same time, together with an IDF medical team, we treated and evacuated the remaining casualties to Jerusalem hospitals, including a 58-year-old woman and a 15-year-old boy in serious condition and a 30-year-old man moderately injured.”
