Sharjah 24 – AFP: Israeli forces shot dead two Palestinians in a pre-dawn raid Sunday in the West Bank, the Palestinian health ministry said, as the army confirmed it dismantled a militant "operational command centre" in the occupied territory.
Violence has surged in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict since early last year, particularly in the West Bank where eight Palestinians have now been killed in Israeli incursions since Tuesday.
"Two Palestinians were killed by live Israeli bullets to the head" in the town of Tulkarem, the ministry said.
The Palestinian health ministry identified the two killed as Osaid Abu Ali, 21, and Abd al-Rahman Abu Daghash, 32.
Ibrahim al-Nimer, a representative of the Palestinian Prisoners' Club advocacy group in the camp, said that "the army entered the camp after 2:00 am ... and demolished streets and some houses".
