An Israeli soldier was slightly hurt in a shooting attack in the West Bank earlier today.
According to the Israel Defense Forces, shots were fired from a passing vehicle at troops who were inspecting another vehicle near the Palestinian village of Nabi Ilyas.
The IDF says troops returned fire at the vehicle, which fled the scene. Roadblocks were set up in the area amid a manhunt for the suspects.
One soldier was hurt by shrapnel and is listed in good condition, the IDF says.
