According to initial reports, the incident took place in the Al-Auja area, while the perpetrator managed to flee the scene.
The Israeli occupation military stated that it received a report regarding a person injured in a stabbing incident in the Jordan Valley, noting that its forces have launched search operations in the surrounding area to locate the assailant and investigate the circumstances of the event.
This incident comes amidst escalating tensions and attacks across the West Bank, particularly in the Jordan Valley, which has witnessed the displacement of Palestinian families from several communities—including areas in Al-Auja—over recent months.
The United Nations has documented the displacement of hundreds of Palestinians from communities across the West Bank due to settler attacks since the beginning of 2026.
