An ambulance was subjected to a terrorist attack by colonial settlers for the second time last night in Qalqilya, in the northern occupied West Bank.

The Palestinian Ministry of Health stated in a statement that an ambulance, transporting a child with burn injuries to a hospital in Nablus, was attacked by settlers near Qalqilya. It added that the child and the medical crews survived the attack and were able to reach the city safely.

Another ambulance belonging to Qalqilya Governmental Hospital was targeted in a similar attack. The ambulance was carrying a one-and-a-half-year-old child with serious injuries. The ambulance crew was surprised by settlers pelting them with stones, resulting in the shattering of the ambulance's windows and damage to its structure. Miraculously, those inside the ambulance managed to escape unharmed.
