MDA paramedic Zachi Yahav arrived at the scene of this afternoon's stabbing in Gush Etzion and says, "A young woman about 20 years old was lying unconscious on the sidewalk next to the bus stop. She had stabbing wounds on her upper body. Civilians nearby began to help her and to stop her bleeding."

Yahav continued: "We quickly brought her to the emergency ambulance and evacuated her to the hospital, all while performing life-saving treatments. At the hospital she was placed on a respirator."
