Two attackers rammed “multiple” reservists in the Israel Defense Forces, lightly injuring two of them “who were operating in the area of Checkpoint 300,” the IDF tweeted on Monday night in Israel.

“The soldiers responded with fire, and hits were identified,” according to the IDF. The injured soldiers received medical care, it added.

The attackers were neutralized, i24 News reported.

Checkpoint 300 is near Bethlehem. Other news reports cited a Palestinian village in the northern part of Judea and Samaria as the site of the attack.
