Three young Israeli women were lightly wounded by shrapnel Monday afternoon, after Palestinians opened fire at the bus they were riding near the settlement of Ofra. Two other women suffered from shock.

At about 3:30 p.m., gunmen opened fire from the direction of the village of Sanjil at an Israeli bus traveling near Ofra carrying students
of the Ofra "Maaleh Levona" girls' high school. Owing to the fact that the bus was armored, the teens sustained only light injuries caused by shrapnel. The three were evacuated to a Jerusalem hospital for treatment.

Magen David Adom, police and army forces arrived at the scene and began searching for the shooters.

Hezi Tzuri, an MDA paramedic told Ynet: "When we arrived we saw the girls getting off the bus panicking and shouting. Two teens complained of back pains and we found several shrapnel wounds on their body. They were given initial treatment and taken to the Hadassa Ein Kerem Hospital. Two other students who suffered from shock were also evacuated to the hospital."...
