The Rambam Hospital in Haifa confirms reports that a man injured in clashes in the West Bank city of Jenin has arrived by military helicopter for treatment.
The hospital emphasizes in a statement that the man is not a member of the Israeli security services.
The hospital says the man was shot and is on a ventilator.
He is in serious condition, the hospital says.
While rare, it is not unheard of for Palestinians wounded in clashes to be treated by Israeli medics, particularly if security services wish to question them.
The man was wounded during a raid by Israeli security forces on the West Bank home of the terrorist who carried out the deadly shooting attack in Tel Aviv.
The Israel Defense Forces said Palestinian gunmen opened fire toward troops operating in the city of Jenin and other nearby villages.
One Palestinian was killed, the Palestinian Authority health ministry said. He was reportedly a member of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad terror group.
There were 13 Palestinians wounded — the Harretz daily reports one of the injured is a 19-year-old woman.
