The rampage killed a Palestinian man and wounded 25 others, Palestinian health officials said. An Israeli rights group said the settlers were searching for a missing 14-year-old boy from their settlement. His body was found on Saturday.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said the assailants would be found and he called on Israelis not to get in the way of security forces. Settlers blocked entrances to two more towns in the area on Saturday and threw stones at passing vehicles, Palestinian official news agency Wafa said.
