Later the same day, the Israeli military announced that the Palestinian man carrying out the attack has been killed by the regime’s forces.
Following the incident, a large number of Israeli forces, accompanied with military vehicles, invaded the town of Deir Samit south of the occupied West Bank city of al-Khalil, attacking the home of the Palestinian man, who has been identified as Moemen Al-Masalmeh.

The Israeli occupation forces opened fire in the vicinity of his home, wounding one person.
The regime’s media claimed that Israeli forces were also looking for a second person involved in the attack.
The Palestinian resistance movement Hamas hailed the attack as a natural response to the regime's massacres in Gaza and the West Bank.
The movement added that the operation also shows Palestinians' commitment to resistance as the only path to liberation of their occupied territories.
The operation came a few hours after the al-Qassam Brigades, the military wing of Hamas, republished a message from its commander, Mohammed Deif, who called on Palestinians in the Gaza Strip and the West Bank to use all resources at their disposal to fight against Israeli forces.
“Today is the day. Whoever has a rifle should come out with it, for this is the time. And whoever does not have a rifle should come forth with their machetes, their pickaxes, or a Molotov cocktail, with their trucks or bulldozers or cars,” Deif said.
