Kan public radio reported that the protesters believed the truck was carrying aid supplies to Gaza. It quoted the military as saying the truck was not carrying aid.

The incident comes just days after aid trucks heading towards the Gaza Strip were ransacked by Israeli protesters. Soldiers who arrived to separate the settlers from the Israeli driver were attacked and three soldiers were slightly hurt, the military said.
