Israel-Palestine-Jordan
Moment a lone veiled Palestinian woman takes on IDF soldiers with an assault rifle before being shot dead at a checkpoint in the West Bank
2021-05-20
  • CCTV footage shows the moment she started walking towards the group of soldiers with a rifle drawn on Wednesday afternoon at at Elias Junction, outside the city of Hebron Wednesday afternoon

  • She appears to fire the weapon, with a flash appearing from the muzzle of the rifle - reportedly an M16

  • A second video taken by a witness shortly afterwards shows her lying face down in the road after being killed

  • None of the troops were wounded - it is the second suspected terror attack near Hebron in as many days

  • The attack comes amid Palestinian rioting in the West Bank over Israel's bombing campaign in Gaza

  • Netanyahu earlier warned he could 'conquer' Hamas as the US demanded an urgent de-escalation in conflict

The article has a good summary of events on Wednesday and a useful visual aid halfway down the page, including that nearly 3700 rockets have been shot off from Gaza, courtesy of Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad.
