An 11-year-old Israeli girl suffered third-degree burns last Thursday when the car she was travelling in near the West Bank settlement of Maaleh Shomron was firebombed.
Ayala Shapira, whose family escaped serious injury, was taken to hospital in a life-threatening condition.
Hours after the attack, the alleged assailants, two young Palestinians aged 16 and 20, were traced to the village of Azun and arrested.
Elsewhere in the West Bank and in Gaza, violence continued to flare throughout the week.
On Wednesday, an IDF Bedouin Battalion soldier was injured by sniper fire while on patrol on the Gaza border. The IDF responded with tank fire and air strikes on Hamas targets.
However, IDF officers said they believed that the sniper was not a Hamas fighter but from a more radical jihadist group. They said that Hamas was trying to block an escalation because the Gaza public is urging the terror movement to focus on reconstruction for now.
Instead, Hamas is urging its supporters in the West Bank to carry out terror attacks against Israelis there.
On Sunday, a website aligned to Hamas hosted a video on how to stab Israelis and cause the most physical damage.
This video followed a failed attempt by a Palestinian civilian to stab two Israeli police officers in Jerusalem on Friday.
Last Wednesday, at a rally in Isawiya in eastern Jerusalem, a five-year-old Palestinian, Jamal Ubeid, was wounded after a bullet fired by police dispersing the crowd hit him in the face.
On Monday, a Palestinian throwing rocks at cars on a road leading to the West Bank settlement of Migdalim was shot and killed by IDF soldiers.
