IDF confirms West Bank stabbing, launches manhunt for attacker

The army confirms two people were injured in a stabbing attack near an army base in the northern West Bank.

It says troops are searching for the attacker, who fled the scene.

One of those injured was a reservist, according to the IDF, while the other was an Israeli woman reportedly reportedly hit by shrapnel when soldiers fired at the assailant.

The Magen David Adom ambulance service says the attack took place at a junction between the settlements of Itamar and Har Bracha.
