Arabs in the Samarian village of Silwad hurled stones at Israeli troops on Tuesday after the troops from the Kfir Brigade were called in reply to a rock assault on an Israeli vehicle travelling on the road between the Jewish populations of Ofra and Eli. No wounds or harm were informed in the attack on the car.

The soldiers arrested one of the Arabs involved in the attack on the car and used riot-control measures to disperse the group of Arabs that threw rocks at them.
