Three Israeli men were shot and lightly wounded on their way to daven at the Kever Yosef compound overnight Tuesday, according to Hebrew media reports.
The three men, members of the Breslover community, had entered Shechem in Shomron after driving through an Israeli military checkpoint and fled after being fired on, later seeking medical attention at Hadassah Mount Scopus Hospital, where police subsequently detained them.
“A report was received that during the night, gunfire was directed at an Israeli vehicle that broke through a checkpoint and illegally entered the city of Nablus in the Samaria Brigade’s area. The vehicle exited the city, and its occupants sought medical attention independently. The incident will be investigated,” the IDF spokesperson said, as quoted by Kikar HaShabbat. (JNS)
