Two people were murdered in a terrorist shooting attack at a gas station at the entrance to Eli in Binyamin this afternoon (Thursday).

There were two attackers. One of the shooters was killed, while the second was wounded and barricaded himself inside a nearby store. There is no concern that the second terrorist had any hostages.

According to Magen David Adom, the two victims were a man in his 30s and a teenager who was found shot in a car.

The IDF stated, “A short while ago, a terrorist arrived at a gas station in Eli and opened fire. The terrorist was neutralized. IDF soldiers are blocking off routes and pursuing additional suspects in the area.”

Eli Settlement Committee Chairman Ariel Elmaliach said, “This is a serious attack. After the attack last year at the Eli gas station, another attack took place there. Now the security forces, together with the security coordinator of the settlement of Eli, are conducting searches on the spot. Unfortunately, the writing was on the wall.”

Binyamin Regional Council chairman Israel Ganz arrived at the scene and said, “We have two murdered in a serious and painful attack. The terrorism here and in Gaza is the same terrorism with the same terrorists and the same ambitions.”

“It is imperative to launch a crushing attack against terrorism in Judea and Samaria. We must into the city centers and destroy” the terrorists, he said.

In June 2023, four Israelis were murdered in another shooting attack at the same location: Hago rel Masoud, a 21-year-old resident of Yad Binyamin, Elisha Antman, a 17-year-old resident of Eli, Ofer Fairman, a 60-year-old resident of Eli, and Nachman Shmuel Mordoff, a 15-year-old resident of Ahiya.
