A Palestinian opened fire today from close range against Israeli soldiers manning a checkpoint in Deir Sharf (near Nablus) and was fatally hit by their immediate reaction fire.
Two other Palestinians who were in a nearby vehicle were injured in the incident.
This was reported by the Israeli public radio station Kan.
The broadcaster added that one of the bullets lodged in the helmet of an Israeli soldier, who however remained unharmed.
