Since the beginning of the Gaza War, the situation has also been very tense in the occupied West Bank. The attack of a Palestinian on an Israeli couple on the way to birth now has tragic consequences.

After an attack by a Palestinian in the occupied West Bank, a heavily pregnant Israel woman in the hospital succumbed to her serious injuries. The doctors had fought in vain for their lives, said the Beillinson Hospital at Tel Aviv. The baby was born with Caesarean section. According to media reports, it is in a critical condition.

The 30-year-old’s husband was also injured. According to media reports, the couple was in the hospital for birth when the attack was carried out on their car.

The Israeli army had announced on Wednesday evening that a terrorist opened the fire on an Israeli vehicle near the Bruchin settlement. Soldiers had accepted the suspect’s persecution.

The Islamist Hamas spoke in a communication of a “heroic act” and called on the Palestinians to an uprising against Israeli occupying powers.

The Israeli President Izchak Duke said: “The murder of Zeela GEZ, who was on the way to the hospital to give birth to a baby, is a creepy, terrorist terrorist that shakes us to the mark.” The terror will not discourage Israel. The perpetrators will be hunted tirelessly.

Since the beginning of the Gaza War in October 2023, the situation has also been extremely tense in the occupied West Bank.

Israel had conquered the West Bank and East Jerusalem in 1967 in 1967. Around 700,000 Israeli settlers live there today in the middle of three million Palestinians. The Palestinians claim the areas for their own state with East Jerusalem as the capital.
