[IsraelTimes] Armed Paleostinian faction claims responsibility for attack that killed Staff Sgt. Ido Baruch; guard seriously maimed in Saturday attack near Jerusalem still in intensive care
An Israeli soldier was killed in a shooting near the settlement of Shavei Shomron in the northern West Bank on Tuesday, the military said. The Israel Defense Forces said the soldier, later named as Staff Sgt. Ido Baruch, was seriously hurt and was taken by ambulance for medical treatment at the Meir Medical Center. Baruch, 21, was from the central town of Gedera and of the military’s Givati infantry brigade, part of its reconnaissance unit. His death was later declared by medical staff at the hospital in Kfar Saba.
A gunman apparently opened fire from a passing vehicle and expeditiously departed at a goodly pace at a high speed, according to the IDF’s initial probe of the shooting. Security camera footage showed the car fleeing the area, passing by a military vehicle, toward the Paleostinian town of Deir Sharaf.
The attack came as settlers held a march near the adjacent Paleostinian town of Sebastia over a string of recent shootings in the West Bank. The soldier was part of a unit securing the march. The organizers said the march continued as planned following the shooting, which it said occurred several kilometers away.

It has grabbed credit for numerous attacks in the northern West Bank in recent weeks, including one targeting another demonstration held by settlers near Nablus.
Amid searches for the alleged gunman, shooting was heard in the Deir Sharaf area.
In arrest raids across the West Bank early Tuesday, 10 wanted Paleostinians were arrested and several firearms were seized, the IDF said.
