1 Israeli soldier slightly injured in car-ramming attack in West Bank

Xinhua,May 12, 2018 Adjust font size:

JERUSALEM, May 11 (Xinhua) -- An Israeli soldier was slightly injured Friday evening in a car-ramming attack outside the northern West Bank settlement of Shavei Shomron, the Iraeli army said.

A car hit a soldier at the Ganot Interchange adjacent to Shavei Shomron, west of Nablus. The driver fled the scene, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said in a statement.

"Forces are searching for it," said the IDF.

A second ramming attack took place near Hebron, where a driver attempted but failed to hit a soldier at a checkpoint, and the driver was arrested, Israeli media reported.

In March, two Israeli soldiers were killed in a West Bank car-ramming terror attack, when a Palestinian rammed his car into a group of soldiers outside a military post near the Mevo Dotan settlement, west of the West Bank city of Jenin. Enditem
