Two Palestinian suspects were detained overnight for allegedly attacking and wounding two Israelis in the central West Bank on Saturday, the military says.
The suspects were arrested in the village of Dayr Dibwan, just outside Ramallah, close to where the incident took place.
According to the army, Palestinians armed with batons, a knife, and stones attacked two Israelis, lightly wounding them. Other reports described the incident as clashes between settlers and Palestinians, saying three Palestinians were also injured and that settlers set fire later to several buildings in a Bedouin village near Jaba, an adjacent town.
The two Palestinian suspects were handed over to the Israel Police and Shin Bet for questioning.
Separately, the IDF says it detained eight wanted Palestinians during overnight raids in Jenin and Qaffin overnight.
