Palestinian man lightly hurt from IDF fire in Jordan Valley incident

A Palestinian man is lightly hurt from IDF fire at a checkpoint in the Jordan Valley.

According to the army, the man does not stop his vehicle as it approaches the Hamra checkpoint, even when soldiers shout to him to stop.

Palestinian media say he was shot in the leg, but was already fleeing the scene when soldiers opened fire.

The IDF gave him initial medical care and handed him to the Palestinian Red Crescent, which says he is lightly wounded.
