The condition of one of the soldiers injured yesterday in a mob attack after accidentally entering the Palestinian city of Jenin has improved, the hospital says.
The unidentified soldier is described as being in good condition.
She told Hadashot news that she is “aware that Palestinian police saved our lives.”
Yesterday, group of Palestinians attacked her and a male colleague after they mistakenly drove an army vehicle into Jenin.
The IDF said the Palestinians surrounded their vehicle, threw rocks at the soldiers and stole a gun.
It said the soldiers had entered Jenin accidentally, probably due to a GPS mistake.
The vehicle was extracted from the city with the cooperation of Palestinian security forces, which are seen in a video circulating online alongside the silver truck attempting to manage the situation.
