A shocking scene has emerged from Israel’s West Bank. A Palestinian man was seen praying on a public road. During this moment, an off-road vehicle suddenly approached. The vehicle was driven directly toward him. The man was hit while praying. The incident was captured on video. The footage quickly spread online. Many viewers were disturbed. The moment raised serious concerns about conduct on the ground.
Israeli media reports confirmed the driver was an Israeli reservist. He was dressed in civilian clothes. A firearm was clearly visible on his shoulder. Authorities said his military service has now ended. Officials admitted he violated his authority. His weapon was confiscated. He was placed under house arrest. This confirmation added gravity to the incident. The army distanced itself from his actions.
An armed Israeli settler deliberately ran over a young man while he was praying on the roadside near Ramallah in the West Bank.

According to initial statements, the Palestinian man had allegedly fired shots earlier. However, details remain unclear. No official evidence has been released publicly. The video does not show any immediate threat. It only shows a man praying. This gap between claims and visuals has raised questions. Many are asking whether force was justified. Investigations are still ongoing. Police have not issued a detailed response.
After the vehicle strike, the Palestinian man was rushed to hospital. Medical checks were conducted. Doctors later discharged him. He survived the incident. However, the psychological impact remains unknown. The video shows how vulnerable he was. Praying on the road made him defenseless. This has deepened anger among Palestinians. Many see it as a symbol of unchecked force.
The timing of the act shocked many observers. The man was engaged in prayer. Religious moments are considered deeply sacred. Using force at such a time intensifies outrage. Human rights groups are closely watching the case. The footage has drawn global attention. Critics say it reflects rising hostility. Supporters of investigation demand accountability. Silence from authorities has added to tension.
According to United Nations data, this year has been the most violent in the West Bank. Over 750 Palestinians were injured in attacks by Israeli civilians. Between October 7, 2023 and October 17, 2025, more than 1,000 Palestinians were killed. Most died during security operations. Some deaths occurred in settler violence. During the same period, 57 Israelis were killed in Palestinian attacks.
Many questions still remain. Was excessive force used? Why was a vehicle used instead of arrest? Will accountability truly follow? The video has forced these questions into public debate. Trust between communities continues to erode. Each such incident deepens the divide. Observers say transparency is essential. Without it, anger will continue to grow across the region.
