An Israeli man was stabbed in the Palestinian Authority town of Dayr Qadis today (Monday), the IDF reported.

The military stated that several Israelis had entered the town and that an Arab man attacked them and stabbed one of them. The victim suffered light injuries and was taken to Modi'in Illit for treatment.

It is unclear whether the stabbing was criminal or nationalistic in nature. In January, another Israeli was stabbed in the same town in an incident authorities determined was criminal in nature.
