An Israeli woman was killed after being hit by what is reported to be a Palestinian taxi near the Havat Gilad outpost on Thursday night in what is suspected of being a terror attack.
The woman, in her 40s, was seriously hurt, and paramedics at the scene had to declare her dead after resuscitation efforts failed.
The driver fled the scene, with the IDF suspected he escaped to the nearby Palestinian village of Jit.
IDF forces set up roadblocks in the area and are searching Palestinian vehicles.
Earlier this year, Rabbi Raziel Shevah was murdered outside Havat Gilad in a drive-by shooting. Ahmed Nassar Jarrar, the head of the terror cell responsible for Rabbi Shevah's murder, was shot dead during a standoff with Israeli security forces almost a month later.
Several days before the terror attack that claimed Rabbi Shevah's life, security forces were looking into information about an armed Palestinian in the area.
