A 16-year-old Palestinian attempted to stab an IDF soldier stationed near the West Bank's Gush Etzion settlement on Thursday afternoon.
According to reports, the suspect arrived in the area via a cab and started hurriedly walking towards the soldiers while holding a knife. One of the soldiers spotted the aggressor and promptly neutralized him by shooting him in the leg.
The teen was soon transferred to a hospital to receive treatment for his wound. No further casualties were reported in the incident.
