He was taken by military ambulance to Jerusalem’s Shaare Zedek Medical Center unconscious and on a ventilator for further medical care.
If he survives, the terrorist can expect to get generous remuneration from the Palestinian Autonomy for his “act of bravery”. If he doesn’t survive, his family will get the compensation.
The attempted attack took place at the same junction where, last Friday, two Palestinians rammed their car into a bus stop and lightly hurt three Israeli teenagers before security forces shot them.
The assault was the 10th such attack in under a week, with the vast majority occurring in Jerusalem and the Hebron area.
Palestinian terror attacks has claimed the lives of 35 Israelis and four foreign nationals since October 2015. Over 200 Palestinians have also been killed in the past year, mostly for attacking Jews.
