Tags: Israel News, West Bank 

An Israeli citizen was lightly wounded on Sunday when a fire bomb was thrown at his car near the West Bank settlement of Barkan.

After the attack, the man continued on to an Israel Defense Forces checkpoint. He received medical treatment there, after which he was taken to Beilinson Hospital in Petah Tikva.

The man's family, who were with him in the car, were unhurt in the attack.

The incident came after IDF troops killed three Palestinian fire bombers last week.

Earlier Sunday, six fire bombs were hurled at Israeli drivers in two separate incidents near the West Bank town of Nablus. There were no casualties in these attacks.
