U.S. photojournalist injured in Nablus
The Israeli army completed an operation in Nablus on Wednesday, targeted at arresting fugitives from the Islamic Jihad and Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine.
Early Wednesday morning a man and a woman were arrested in Nablus and in the nearby town of Bil'in, respectively, under suspicion that they agreed to commit a suicide bombing against Israelis.
Later, the troops surrounded two more suspects who barricaded themselves inside a building in Nablus. A gun battle took place during that time.
A U.S. photojournalist was injured in his stomach by a rubber bullet fired by soldiers.
