An Israeli-Arab opened fire this morning at IDF soldiers manning a checkpoint at Baka al-Sharkiye, on the northwestern border of the Shomron. Two soldiers were wounded, lightly and moderately, respectively. In the ensuing exchange of fire, one terrorist was killed; there are conflicting reports as to whether the second terrorist, his driver, was killed or detained.
Last night, Palestinian terrorist gunfire targeted Psagot (north of Jerusalem), the Tunnels Highway between Gush Etzion and Jerusalem, and the Kvasim Junction (south of Hevron). Arabs also shot at army positions near Kalkilye (east of Kfar Sava), Sa-Nur (northern Shomron), and north of Hevron, and detonated four bombs against soldiers: on the road to Mount Eval near Shechem, in the Bethlehem district south of the capital, aside a jeep in Gush Katif, and near Kalkilye. There were no reports of injuries in any of these incidents.
Later this morning, motorists in an Israeli car were shot at north of Jerusalem, near Atarot; no one was hurt.
Eleven of the wounded from the Karnei Shomron attack are still hospitalized. Five children - two in critical condition and three whose condition is listed as \"moderate\" - are in Schneider Children\'s Hospital, and six less seriously wounded are in Beilinson Hospital in Petach Tikvah.
