Magen ambulance service David David Adom said 17-year-old Nehum Nevis was unresponsive and "in serious condition with multiple system trauma" and that 19-year-old sister to Noam Nevis sustained moderate injuries.
Dozens of Israeli troops and medics were on the scene. The alleged assailant's vehicle, which carried Israeli license plates allowing greater freedom of movement in both Israel and the West Bank, was overturned by the roadside. Police said the attacker was driving on a road weaving past Palestinian cities and Israeli settlements.
