An Israeli woman on her way to give birth is killed in a West Bank attack
- Tzeela Gez, a 37-year-old pregnant woman from the northern West Bank community of Bruchin, was fatally shot while en route to a hospital on Wednesday night.
- The assault took place amid a surge in Israeli military operations and rising tensions in the West Bank, following Hamas’s early October offensive against southern Israeli communities that led to the outbreak of the Gaza conflict.
- After the shooting by a Palestinian gunman who fled the scene, doctors performed an emergency caesarean section, saving the baby who is in serious but stable condition, while Gez's husband was lightly wounded.
- Israeli officials, including Prime Minister Netanyahu and Defense Minister Katz, condemned the attack and vowed a maximum-force military response to find the perpetrators, with the military sealing nearby Palestinian villages and setting checkpoints.
- The incident increased fears of vigilante violence by radical settlers, contributing to the ongoing cycle of violence amid disputed settlements and a long-stalled peace process in the occupied West Bank.
