Israeli media outlet 0404 reported that two firebombs in the form of Molotov cocktails were thrown at a passing Israeli vehicle on Highway 596  on Thursday evening. The road connects between the Jewish towns of Reihan and Hermesh in Samaria. It also leads to numerous Palestinian villages in the area.

The car of a resident from Hermesh was hit by the projectile and flames erupted on the hood and roof of the car. No injuries were reported as rescue and security services arrived and scoured the area looking for the assailants who had fled the area soon after throwing the firebomb.
