An assailant, armed with a knife, ran towards IDF troops near the Gush Etzion junction on Wednesday. Forces called on him to stop and when he didn't they fired at him as part of protocol procedure. The attack was thwarted and the man, who had been detained, was injured and evacuated to a nearby hospital for medical treatment.
