An Israeli bus driver was lightly wounded on Tuesday by a brick hurled at his vehicle in the Palestinian village of Hajjah in northern Samaria.
The 51-year-old reportedly entered the town to refuel and was confronted by local residents who then assaulted him, hurling a brick that penetrated the windshield and struck him in the head.
He was treated by first responders at the scene before being transported to Beilinson Hospital in Petach Tikvah for further treatment.
On Wednesday morning, terrorists opened fire on an Israel Defense Forces helicopter flying low over the Palestinian city of Tulkarm in Samaria, according to Arab reports.
