ANKARA (AA) - Five Israeli soldiers were injured on Sunday in a car-ramming attack near Jericho city in the occupied West Bank, according to Israeli authorities.
Police and the army said in statements that a Palestinian driver rammed his car into soldiers at two locations south of Jericho before he was shot.
According to Israeli media, the attacker was listed in serious condition.
Sunday’s attack came one day after an Israeli settler was killed and two others were injured in an attack in the West Bank city of Hebron on Saturday.
There was no claim of responsibility for the attack.
On Sunday, Palestinians staged a general strike in Hebron in protest of settler attacks against their property in the city.
