Local sources identified the Palestinian as Ahmad Abed al-Nasser Adais, in his thirties, a resident from the Bani Naim village in the Hebron district.
Sources added that Adais reportedly suffers from a psychiatric disorder.
An Israeli settler, Ofer Yohna, who was present at the scene, filmed a video of Adais as he was laying injured on the ground.
Throughout the video, Yohna cursed and shouted at injured Adais,
“This is the one who attempted to stab Israeli soldiers. He was shot and now he is injured. He is bleeding on the ground.”
Yohna continued,
“Shoot him in the head, shoot him in the head.”
