The site of the incident was near the Barkan industrial zone, where a Palestinian man killed two Israeli co-workers and wounded another woman eight day

The site of the incident was near the Barkan industrial zone, where a Palestinian man killed two Israeli co-workers and wounded another woman eight days ago. While Palestinians committing any crime towards Israeli settlers in the West Bank are subject to Israeli martial law, the majority of settlers' attacks committed against Palestinians are met with impunity, although they should be prosecuted according to Israeli penal law. Hundreds of thousands of Israeli settlers live in settlements across the West Bank in contravention of international law which considers the West Bank an occupied territory
