The IDF said forces were shot at but no injuries resulted from the incident.

Israeli Defense Forces were shot at while carrying out an operation overnight Thursday in the West Bank city of Hebron, but there were no injuries, according to an IDF statement Friday morning.

“Also during the night, IDF and ISA forces, the Border Police and the Israel Police arrested two wanted persons suspected of involvement in terror activities, popular terror and violent disturbances against civilians and soldiers,” the statement read.

Israeli soldiers regularly carry out nightly raids across the West Bank, routinely detaining suspects wanted for terror attacks, illegal weapons possession, and other low-level security offenses.

Last year 1,380 Palestinian suspects were arrested in similar missions according to Hadashot news.
