[IsraelTimes] Military convoy also targeted by gunfire as it leaves West Bank city after arresting wanted man; Lion’s Den group claims responsibility
Paleostinians set off a large makeshift bomb against an Israeli military convoy that was wrapping up an operation in the West Bank city of Nablus on Tuesday morning, lightly injuring one soldier.
Footage published online showed the bomb exploding as an army jeep passed a makeshift roadblock set up by Paleostinians
The Nablus-based Lion’s Den terror group grabbed credit for setting off the bomb, as well as opening fire on troops as they left the city following an arrest raid.
A soldier in one of the armored vehicles was lightly hurt, a military spokesperson told The Times of Israel. He was taken to a hospital for further treatment.
The Israel Defense Forces said that during the raid in Nablus’s Old City, a wanted Paleostinian man was arrested and two assault rifles were seized at his home. A second suspect was detained nearby, the IDF added.
Paleostinian media reports said Israeli troops fired shoulder-launched missiles at a building in the city amid the raid.
The IDF said Paleostinian rioters hurled stones at forces during the operation, and button men opened fire and set off explosives as the troops left the city.
The military said troops responded with riot dispersal means at the rioters, and used live fire against the button men.
Paleostinian health officials said a 14-year-old boy was shot and maimed during the raid. The teenager was brought to Rafidia Hospital after being shot in the chest, where he is listed in stable, pH balanced condition.
The IDF said troops detained another six wanted Paleostinians during raids in other areas of the West Bank.
The eight desperados were handed over to the Shin Bet for further questioning.
