The victims were taken to Hadassah Medical Center in Jerusalem's Ein Kerem.

Two Israeli men sustained minor head wounds in a Palestinian stone-throwing attack outside near Eitam Farm in the Gush Etzion region of Judea on Wednesday, the Magen David Adom emergency service said.

Medics "provided medical treatment to an 18-year-old man and a 26-year-old man in fair condition with head wounds and referred them to Hadassah Ein Kerem Hospital," the organization announced.

In a video published by Israel's Arutz 7, one of the apparent victims of the terrorist attack appeared with blood streaming down his face.

Eitam Farm is located several miles from the city of Efrat and was founded in September 2018 in response to the murder of Israeli-American father of four Ari Fuld at the nearby Gush Etzion Junction.

The strategically located agricultural community was built on land that the Jewish National Fund purchased more than 70 years ago.

In the first half of 2024, Judea and Samaria saw more than 500 Arab terrorist attacks per month on average, according to figures published on Aug. 1 by Rescuers Without Borders (Hatzalah Judea and Samaria).

During that time period, first responders recorded 3,272 terrorist acts in the region, including 1,868 cases of rock-throwing, 456 attacks with Molotov cocktails, 299 explosive charges and 109 shootings.

Terrorists murdered 14 people and wounded more than 155 others in Judea and Samaria between January and June, the rescue group said.
