A military official this morning (Sunday) referred to the shooting attack in Hawara that happened last night, in which two soldiers were wounded, and said that apparently the fighters did not have time to fire back at the vehicle in which the terrorist or terrorists were.
According to him, the attacker knew the area well, fired seven bullets on automatic mode, and managed to escape immediately after the shooting.
According to estimates, he fled to the nearby village of Beta.
In the scans carried out after the incident, the terrorist's backpack cache was located, which coordinated the angle of fire towards the fighters.
The military source noted that the IDF set up more than 20 roadblocks in the area to disrupt the escape route, but to no avail. A response to a raid on a building," he said.

Yesterday, in the attack, two IDF soldiers who were standing at a military position in Einbus Square were seriously and moderately injured. An IDF spokesman said that the soldiers were evacuated to Beilinson Hospital in Petah Tikva and their families were informed.
This is the third shooting attack that takes place in Hvara in weeks.
Following the two previous attacks, the area was reinforced with additional fighting forces, but the reinforcements gradually decreased and it is estimated that the terrorist squad waited for an hour of training.
About a week ago, the terrorist Lit Nassar opened fire on an Israeli vehicle near the same square in the center of Hawara, moderately wounding 41-year-old David Stern, who was shot in front of his wife.
Stern was armed, returned fire at the terrorist and hit him.
Three weeks before, at the same scene, the terrorist Abd al-Fattah Harusha murdered the brothers Hillel Weigal Yaniv, residents of Har Bracha aged 21 and 19.
