Security forces were today carrying out widespread search operations along the Nablus-Tulkarm road in the West Bank for terrorists who shot and slightly wounded two West Bank settlers last night. The two were driving from Netanya to their home in Shomrei Shomron when shots were fired at their car near Anabta village. Shortly afterwards shots were also fired at a civilian bus carrying soldiers near the same spot. The army has imposed a curfew along the Tulkarm-Nablus road, which is heavily travelled by Samaria settlers and by soldiers serving in the West Bank.
