Two Israelis were injured on Thursday afternoon in a stabbing attack near Huwara checkpoint in Nablus city north of the occupied West Bank.
According to the Hebrew website 0404 a Palestinian young man carried out the attack and fled the scene.
One of the wounded Israelis is reportedly a soldier and was transferred to a hospital in critical condition.
Consequently the Israeli occupation forces have launched a manhunt for the attacker and closed the main entrances to Nablus city.
Hordes of Jewish settlers were also seen rallying at the junction of Yitzhar in a nearby area and embarked on hurling stones at Palestinian cars.
