An Arab-Israeli man was killed in a shooting attack on Route 465 in the West Bank, between the settlements of Eli and Ofra, in a terror attack.
It appears the terrorists shot at the vehicle thinking it was a Jewish-owned vehicle, and instead murdered an Arab.
The victim was identified as 35-year-old Ammar Mansour of the Beit Hanina neighborhood. He was pronounced dead on the scene by MDA Paramedics.
A manhunt was underway for the Palestinian terrorists who fled the scene.

sad, a human was taken not in error but in terror…..
Let these arabs eat crow
You interviewed the terrorists to know what they thought. Arabs who do not actively support terrorism are considered traitors by the Palestinian nationalists, and indeed any Arab in Gaza or the West Bank who favors peace is routinely executed. If the person killed was a known terrorists, you can conclude it was a case of mistaken identity (“friendly fire”). Absent that, there is no reason to assume he was show because they thought he was Jewish, rather they shot since he appeared to be an Israeli citizen who was not a terrorist.
Now Ammar Mansour’s entire clan needs to do the job – take revenge and eliminate the terrorist and his clan.
