One soldier was lightly wounded during clashes with Palestinian gunmen in the Nur Shams refugee camp, near the West Bank city of Tulkarem overnight, the IDF says.
The soldier was hurt by shrapnel after gunmen opened fire and hurled explosives at troops, the statement adds.
Troops seized some 30 firearms, detonated an explosives lab, and detained eight suspects during the raid.
