The IDF said Saturday that it had dispatched soldiers to the Arab village of Deir Jarir in Samaria after receiving reports of stones hurled at Israeli civilians. When they arrived, a violent riot ensued, which included stones thrown toward the troops. A reservist “carried out a suspect apprehension procedure,” according to the military’s statement. This involved firing warning shots into the air, but shots were also fired toward the suspect. The IDF also said that soldiers at the scene moved to quell the riot, dispersing those present.

The unit responsible for quelling the riot, known as Hagmar, is made up of local reservists.

The injured terrorist was evacuated to a hospital for treatment, where he was pronounced dead. The PA Health Ministry identified him as 23-year-old Ali Majed Hamadneh.

The IDF is currently investigating the incident.
