Israeli soldiers conducted house-to-house searches and maintained curfews in the northwestern West Bank in an effort to find an Israeli who was abducted by two masked men wielding axes and knives. The military closed off the West Bank town of Tulkarm and surrounding villages as it searched for Shaul Mishani, 45, a gold dealer from Bat Yam. Mishani disappeared while collecting debts owed to him by Tulkarm gold dealers, Army Radio reported. It is not clear whether the abduction was politically motivated.
