July 2023 Tel Aviv attack

On 4 July 2023, a vehicle-ramming and stabbing attack occurred on Pinchas Rosen Street in the north of Tel Aviv, Israel. The attacker was a 20-year-old Palestinian man from As-Samu in the West Bank. He deliberately drove a pickup truck into pedestrians before exiting the vehicle and stabbing one of the injured in the neck. A motorcyclist at the scene shot the attacker dead, ending the attack.

The attack left nine people injured. Among the injured was a pregnant woman who was seriously hurt and subsequently lost her unborn child as a result of the attack.

The attack took place against the backdrop of Israeli military incursions into Jenin in the West Bank during 2023, which occurred in January, June, and July of that year. The July Jenin incursion had begun the day before the Tel Aviv attack.

In the aftermath, Hamas, the Islamist Palestinian nationalist militant group, stated that the attacker was a member of their organization. Hamas praised the attack as heroic and characterized it as an act of revenge for the July 2023 Jenin incursion.

The attacker was killed at the scene by a motorcyclist who shot him, and no further legal proceedings are recorded in connection with this case, as the perpetrator did not survive the incident.
