Arguably fails WP:NOTNEWS and WP:NEVENT. This article is about your average attack during the Israel-Palestine conflict and, aside from some coverage updating the victim count, doesn't look to be significant from a NOTNEWS standpoint. Also, the death toll of two isn't much either. Onegreatjoke ( talk) 02:15, 7 July 2023 (UTC)
- Delete: Per nom. Sadly a mundane Israel-Palestine conflict occurrence. Not discernably notable. Iskandar323 ( talk) 07:52, 7 July 2023 (UTC)

- Keep Per WP:RAPID also meets WP:GEOSCOPE and WP:DIVERSE [1], [2], [3] -- Shrike ( talk) 15:56, 8 July 2023 (UTC)
- Keep. It meets both the WP:GNG and WP:NEVENT, as detailed above, and does not violate WP:NOTNEWS. Unfortunately, notable and violent events in West Asia and elsewhere keep coming. The experience for Israel is that books and news media keep getting back to such events. gidonb ( talk) 17:49, 8 July 2023 (UTC)
- Delete. Does not have major long term consequences. The only coverage is news coverage, not sustained secondary coverage. As such, it fails WP:GNG and WP:NEVENTS. Wikipedia is not a newspaper or a collection of interesting news stories. Thebiguglyalien ( talk) 04:14, 9 July 2023 (UTC)
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

- Keep. There is enough news coverage that it WP:GNG is met (beyond WP:NOTNEWS). ParadaJulio ( talk) 12:09, 14 July 2023 (UTC)
- Keep Per WP:RAPID. Pharaoh of the Wizards ( talk) 19:27, 18 July 2023 (UTC)
- Keep. WP:NOTNEWS would apply here if it were a "routine" car ramming or coverage was limited to the local police blotter; this one received WP:SIGCOV in international media like the BBC, France 24, CNN, Reuters, and more WP:RS, clearly qualifying it under WP:GNG. The event also received news coverage after the event. Longhornsg ( talk) 04:55, 19 July 2023 (UTC)
