RAMALLAH, Dec. 3 (Xinhua) — Israeli forces killed two Palestinians in separate incidents in the West Bank on Tuesday, Palestinian officials said, while the Israeli military said it was responding to a car crash and a stabbing that left a total of three soldiers lightly wounded.
The Palestinian Health Ministry reported that 17-year-old Muhannad Tariq Mohammad Al-Zghir was shot dead in Hebron, and his body was recovered by Israeli forces. Palestinian security officials said the shooting occurred when Israeli forces closed the northern checkpoints during a raid after an Israeli soldier was shot down at a nearby military checkpoint.
The Israeli military said one of its soldiers was lightly wounded in a car crash near Hebron and the driver was killed when troops tried to arrest him.
In a separate incident near the village of Umm Safa, north of Ramallah, the Palestinian Ministry of Health reported that Israeli forces shot and killed 18-year-old Mohammed Ruslan Mahmoud Asmar after a knife attack. Palestinian officials said his body was also seized and that Red Crescent medics were prevented from reaching it.
Palestinian sources reported that troops closed all northern entrances to Ramallah, restricting movement in the area. The Israeli military reported that two soldiers were slightly wounded in a knife attack near the settlement of Ateret after the attacker pulled a knife during interrogation. Ateret is an Israeli communal settlement in the West Bank, built on land confiscated from several Palestinian villages, including Umm Safa.
Separately, Tubas Governor Ahmad Al-Asaad stated that Israeli forces were continuing a large-scale operation in Tubas and the nearby city of Aqaba, leaving the area in a state of "complete lockdown" for a second day. He said dozens of homes had been raided, some of which had been converted into military positions, and described the situation as tense.
