The Israeli Channel 12 reported that "an individual carrying a knife arrived at the Eliyahu checkpoint near Qalqilya and tried to stab the security guards there."
Israeli media disclosed that the military was actively seeking a potential second suspect and that forces had initiated a thorough search of the area after an individual exited the vehicle used in the operation near the Eliyahu checkpoint.
Earlier this week, Al Mayadeen's correspondent in occupied Palestine reported that several Israeli settlers were injured, one of them with a serious injury, in a shooting operation in the Jordan Valley area in the occupied West Bank.
Israeli media reported that at least 10 were injured in the shooting operation, adding that the IOF conducted search operations in an attempt to find the executors of the operation.
