An IDF soldier was hurt Tuesday when an Arab threw stones at him near an Arab village north of Ofra in the Binyamin region. The IDF said that the incident occurred during a hike by Israeli civilians in the area, who were ambushed and attacked by a gang of rock-throwing Arabs. An IDF patrol came to protect the civilians, and they, too, were attacked with stones, one of which injured the soldier. He was evacuated to a Jerusalem hospital for treatment.
