The Israeli army said that Aljabi approached the Huwwara checkpoint in the northern West Bank and rammed his vehicle into security forces wounding a soldier before being shot.
Since the start of October, Israeli forces or armed civilians have killed at least 130 Palestinians, 81 of whom authorities described as assailants.
Since mid-September, a wave of Palestinian shooting, stabbing and vehicular attacks have killed 20 Israelis.
The man, named as Mussab Mahmoud al-Razali, was shot dead after he pulled out a knife and refused to drop it when commanded to by police.
Palestinian sources named the driver as Maher al-Jabi, 56, who they said died of his wounds in a Nablus hospital.
The Palestinian Health Ministry in the West Bank said on Sunday that the victims of the attack in Huwara in the north of the Israeli-occupied West Bank were aged 17 and 23.
Many observers attribute the recent uptick in violence to a July arson attack in the West Bank by suspected Jewish settlers that killed an 18-month-old Palestinian child and his parents.
Israel blames the Palestinian attacks on incitement.
A nearby security guard apprehended the attacker who was then taken into police custody.
The military identified one of the returned dead as Issam Thawabta, who was killed in November after he fatally stabbed Hadar Buchris, a 21-year-old Israeli woman, at the Gush Etzion junction south of Jerusalem. “The terrorist whipped out a knife and tried to stab a police officer”.

“It was just a meeting held with Sivan Shalom, the Israeli deputy prime minister, in August”, Erekat said, adding that “in the meeting, I called for resuming the talks based on the principle of the two-state solution”.
