Palestinian stabs Israeli soldier in West Bank
A Palestinian stabbed an Israeli soldier Thursday during an arrest of Palestinians who had sneaked past Israel's West Bank apartheid wall on their way into Israel, the military said, The Associated Press reported.
The soldier was stabbed in the occupied West Bank alongside the barrier. He suffered light injuries and was evacuated to the hospital, the military said.
Also Thursday, Israel arrested a Palestinian lawmaker from a left-wing group for disobeying an Israeli order restricting her movement in the West Bank.
The Israeli military said it arrested Khalida Jarrar, a senior political leader of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, early Thursday in the West Bank city of Ramallah due to "substantial concerns about the safety and security of the region."
