Vehicular jihad is popular among “Palestinian” jihadis. A billboard in Nazareth actually called for attacks of this kind. “Moderate” Fatah also called for such attacks.
“Israeli killed, five injured in terror attack near Modi’in,” JNS, August 31, 2023:
An Israeli was killed and five others injured on Thursday morning when a Palestinian terrorist rammed them with a truck at the Maccabim Crossing along Route 443, close to the central city of Modi’in.
Three of the victims, all in their 20s, were treated by Magen David Adom emergency medical personnel before being evacuated to the hospital. One was in critical condition and later succumbed to his wounds; a second was seriously hurt and another suffered minor injuries.
A Palestinian teenager was also lightly injured and an Israeli couple in their 20s sustained mild injuries when their car was struck by the terrorist, according to MDA.
There were three soldiers among the victims, the army said.
The terrorist fled the scene but was tracked down and neutralized at the Hashmonaim Crossing some 10 kilometers (6 miles) away, according to the Israel Police.
The Defense Ministry said its security guards operating the Hashmonaim checkpoint received a description of the terrorist’s truck from the IDF moments after the attack, and subsequently opened fire at the vehicle after identifying the assailant.
Israel Police Deputy Commissioner Avi Biton said the terrorist was a 41-year-old Palestinian who was known to security forces and had a work permit to enter Israel.
He was later identified as Daoud Abdel Razeq Fayez from the Palestinian village of Deir Ammar, near Ramallah….
