 [IsraelTimes] A Paleostinian man was maimed Tuesday in the southern West Bank when an bomb went off in his hand, Paleostinian medics said. The man was apparently trying to throw the bomb at passing Israeli vehicles.
The Paleostinian Red Islamic Thingy said its medics treated a man in his home in Idhna near Hebron after he injured his hand in an unknown explosion, adding that he was transferred to a hospital for further treatment.
Israel’s Kan public broadcaster said he had been trying to throw a pipe bomb at Israeli motorists at the nearby Tarkumiya junction when it went kaboom! . There were no Israeli casualties.
The attempted attack came as Israelis celebrated Independence Day and hours after a Paleostinian teenager stabbed an Israeli woman in the central Israeli town of Kfar Saba, in what police called a terror attack, before he was shot by a security guard.
