Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleThree soldiers are lightly injured by rocks thrown at them by Palestinians during clashes that broke out after the bus in which they were traveling entered the Palestinian city of Qalandiya in the central West Bank, the army says.
The one female officer and two male soldiers have been taken to the hospital for treatment. There are no immediate reports of Palestinian injuries.
The army says it is investigating why the bus entered the Palestinian city.
Once inside Qalandiya, the bus was quickly surrounded and local residents began throwing rocks at it. In response, IDF troops fired gunshots into the air to break up the crowd.
The bus was then able to exit the city.
