Palestinian terrorists shot and killed Ammar Mansour, a 33-year-old Israeli Arab citizen, on Sunday because they mistook him for a Jewish Israeli, according to media reports.

The Times of Israel reported:

The East Jerusalem man killed in this morning’s shooting terror attack in the West Bank is named by Hebrew media as Ammar Mansour of the Beit Hanina neighborhood.

Mansour, 33, an Israeli citizen, was killed in his car on Route 465, with the IDF saying the motive was terror-related. The suspected Palestinian gunmen fled the scene and Israeli forces are searching for them.

Israeli writer Hen Mazzig noted that Mansour, a father of two, was likely mistaken for an Israeli Jew.
