An Israeli settler died Monday of wounds he sustained in a shooting attack in the northern West Bank one day earlier, according to Israeli media.

The Israeli army has launched a manhunt for the attacker.

On Monday, Israeli forces raided several homes and shops in the West Bank city of Salfit in for the shooter.
