Two Israelis were injured on Friday afternoon in a suspected West Bank ramming attack outside the settlement of Elazar.

The driver, presumed to be a Palestinian, was shot and killed by a policeman.

According to a report by the Magen David Adom, two pedestrians were hit by a vehicle on Highway 60, a 17-year-old boy and a 19-year-old woman.

MDA Spokesperson Zaki Heller said that the first was unresponsive and in severe condition with multisystem trauma, while the 19-year-old suffered from moderate injuries.

They have been evacuated to the Hadassa Ein Karem Hospital and to the Shaare Zedek Hospital in Jerusalem.
