Israeli public radio said the masked gunman started shooting at Israeli cars at around 7:00 am local time, hitting a car and a school bus.

Violence has surged in the West Bank since the start of the war between Israel and Hamas in the Gaza Strip in October. The war began with Hamas’ unprecedented attack against Israel on October 7 that left about 1,160 people dead.

More than 440 Palestinians have been killed by Israeli troops or settlers in the West Bank since the war broke out, according to the Palestinian Authority, which has partial administrative control in the West Bank.
