The preliminary investigation into the ramming operation that took place last night near Nablus, which led to the killing of two soldiers, showed that while the soldiers were searching a car at the checkpoint, the perpetrator drove towards them with another car and ran them over.

After he ran over them, he turned his car and fled to the city of Nablus. Israeli Channel 12 reported that he surrendered himself to the Palestinian security forces, and the Palestinian Authority has not yet handed him over to the Israeli army.
