An Israeli man in his 30s is seriously injured in a car-ramming attack at the Maccabim Junction in the West Bank a short while ago, the military and medics say.

The IDF says troops operating at the scene shot dead the assailant who carried out the ramming.

The Magen David Adom ambulance service says its medics are treating an unconscious man in his 30s in serious condition after he was hit by a car at the checkpoint on Route 443.
