Far-right activists open fire on Bedouins in West Bank; several wounded

By YAAKOV KATZ
Unidentified far-right activists opened fire on local Bedouins in two separate incidents near Maon Esther, an illegal outpost in the West Bank on Tuesday afternoon. Several people from both sides were wounded, and five Israelis were detained, including the two who opened fire. The group of Israelis involved in Tuesday's clashes was the same group that prompted IDF Central Command to impose a temporary two-day restriction on Israeli cars entering parts of the West Bank out of fear that they may be ferrying right-wing extremists seeking to provoke local Palestinians.
