Breslov Hasidim break through checkpoint near Joseph's Tomb - shot at by terrorists

Three Breslov Hasidim entered Nablus on their way to Joseph's Tomb on Wednesday night, after breaking through a military checkpoint, but after being shot by terrorists, they fled.

The serious incident took place at around 3:30 A.M., when terrorists identified the Hasidim as they drove into Nablus, on the way to Joseph's Tomb.

The terrorists opened fire at them, and the Hasidim fled and left Nablus, after which they evacuated independently to Nadsa Mount Scopus Hospital, where they were detained by the police.

The IDF Spokesperson said that "a report was received that during the night shots were fired at an Israeli vehicle that broke through a checkpoint and illegally entered the city of Nablus in the Samaria Brigade. The vehicle left the city and its occupants evacuated independently for a medical examination. The case will be investigated."

The IDF Spokesperson notes that "the three are being detained for interrogation by the Israel Police," and reminds us that "entry into Area A is dangerous and prohibited to Israelis by law."
