Two IDF reservists were seriously wounded in the shooting attack earlier today near the Reihan checkpoint in the northern West Bank, the military says.

One of the soldiers served in the Home Front Command’s 5703rd Reserve Search and Rescue Battalion, while the second served in the Technology and Maintenance Corps’ 703rd Battalion.

Additionally, an officer in the Jordan Valley Regional Brigade’s 5016th Reserve Battalion was moderately wounded in a car-ramming and stabbing attack earlier today near Hebron.

All three soldiers were taken to hospitals for treatment.
