The Magen David Adom ambulance service says a 5-year-old boy was lightly wounded by glass shards when an Israeli vehicle came under attack on Route 60 in the West Bank.
The IDF says it has encircled the West Bank village of Madama amid the search for a Palestinian who hurled stones at the vehicle on the nearby highway.
“IDF soldiers are conducting searches for the terrorist and a temporary security cordon has been placed around the area of Madama,” the army says.
