"A report was received regarding a security incident near Malachei HaShalom. The details are under review," the IDF spokesman said in a statement.
According to eyewitness accounts, the suspect is a masked man who fired a gun and fled to a Palestinian village near the outpost. IDF forces are searching the village of al-Mughayyir and blocking the entrances to it.
