Deliberate attack by Israeli army on Palestinian pilgrims’ vehicle

The van, which was transporting Palestinian pilgrims from the city of Jenin in the northern West Bank toward Mecca on Saturday morning, was unable to reach its destination due to actions by the Israeli army.

According to local sources, the van was exiting the Al-Sila Al-Harithiya checkpoint in the northern West Bank in the early morning hours when two Israeli military vehicles deliberately rammed into it from behind, causing severe fear and panic among the passengers.

Sputnik news agency reported that the nature of the collision between the Israeli military vehicles and the pilgrims’ van indicates it was intentional.

The majority of the van’s passengers were elderly individuals, primarily from families of Palestinian martyrs and wounded veterans.
