A border policeman sustained a leg injury when an explosive device was hurled in the Kever Rochel complex on Hoshana Raba afternoon. The policeman is reported in light condition, hit with shrapnel from the bomb in his right leg.

There were also reports of heavy rock-throwing near the tziyun a short time before the bomb attack. Soldiers responded with riot-control measures.

The policeman was treated and released from Shaare Zedek Medical Center.
