Former Jerusalem Deputy Mayor Fleur Hassan-Nahoum Attacked by Palestinian Stone-Throwers in Judea and Samaria

Oct 19, 2026·3 min read

Former Jerusalem Deputy Mayor Fleur Hassan-Nahoum narrowly escaped serious injury after Palestinian stone-throwers attacked her vehicle in the Binyamin region of Judea and Samaria, shattering a window and injuring another passenger.

Hassan-Nahoum, an Israeli public diplomacy activist and candidate for Amcha Yisrael, the political party led by former senior IDF officer Ofer Winter, was speaking on camera about security threats facing Israelis when the attack occurred.

Dramatic footage captures the moment a large stone crashes through the vehicle’s window, interrupting her remarks and sending shattered glass into the car.

Following the attack, Hassan-Nahoum held up the stone responsible for the damage and warned about the potentially deadly consequences of rock-throwing attacks.

“This is the ‘innocent 12-year-olds and 13-year-olds,’” she said. “This kills. It’s not just throwing stones; this kills.”

One passenger was reportedly injured. Israeli police confirmed they were collecting evidence and working to identify those responsible.

Despite the frightening encounter, Hassan-Nahoum, who works to promote Israel’s case on the international stage, made clear that the attack would not intimidate her or interfere with her advocacy.

“Palestinian terrorism will not deter us. I will continue to fight for Israel’s name around the world,” Hassan-Nahoum declared.

Winter condemned the attack and questioned how much longer Israeli civilians would be forced to live under the constant threat of violence.

“How long must Israeli citizens have to live in fear?” Winter asked, criticizing repeated security operations that he argued have failed to produce lasting results.

Binyamin Regional Council Chairman Israel Ganz also denounced the attack, accusing the international community of applying a double standard when responding to violence involving Israelis and Palestinians.

“When the perpetrator is Jewish, the world is up in arms. When the victim is Jewish, or a supporter of Israel, the world loses its voice,” Ganz said.

Ganz called on Israeli security forces to apprehend the attackers and bring them to justice before another stone-throwing incident claims a life.

Hassan-Nahoum, who previously served as Jerusalem’s deputy mayor, has been an outspoken advocate for Israel internationally. Her candidacy with Amcha Yisrael marks her latest effort to influence Israeli public policy and national security.

The attack highlights the potentially lethal consequences of stones hurled at moving vehicles, which can shatter windshields, cause drivers to lose control, and result in serious injuries or fatalities.

Israeli police have not announced any arrests in connection with the incident.
