Four Israelis are wounded in a suspected shooting attack in the northern West Bank, medics say.

An Israeli motorist in his 30s reported that he came under fire at the Efes junction, between the settlements of Mevo Dotan and Hermesh, west of Jenin.

The driver reached the Reihan checkpoint, where he is being treated by Magen David Adom medics.

MDA says the driver is suffering from gunshot wounds to his upper body, is conscious and in moderate condition.

According to the Rescuers Without Borders emergency service, after the Palestinian gunmen opened fire at the first Israeli motorist, they targeted other Israelis in the area, injuring three.

The service says the additional three victims suffered light injuries, one from a gunshot wound to his shoulder and the other two as a result of shrapnel.

The military says it will provide further details on the apparent attack later.
