The IDF says it has encircled the West Bank Palestinian village of Beit Ur al-Tahta as it searches for suspects behind a stone-throwing attack in the area.

Troops and police officers were dispatched to Beit Ur al-Tahta after an Israeli woman driving on the Route 443 Highway was lightly hurt when her car was hit by stones hurled by Palestinians, the army says.

The woman was taken to a hospital in Jerusalem in good condition after sustaining glass shrapnel injuries.
