An Israeli man was wounded after being hit by a stone during a violent confrontation between Israelis and Palestinians near the West Bank settlement of Susya, the military says.

The Magen David Adom ambulance service says it took the man, aged 25, to a hospital in moderate condition.

The IDF says that during the incident, both sides threw stones at each other, and a Palestinian “terrorist” snatched a gun from one of the Israeli civilians.

There was also gunfire in the air during the clash, the army says.

“IDF troops are currently pursuing the terrorist and have set up roadblocks in the area,” the IDF adds.
