Israel kills 2 in W. Bank (JTA)
Israeli troops killed two Palestinian terrorists in the West Bank. The two Al-Aksa Brigade members were slain during a shootout Tuesday in Balata, near the city of Nablus. Two members of Israel’s paramilitary police were wounded in the clash. The Palestinians were long wanted by Israel for planning suicide bombings. In the Gaza Strip, an Israeli airstrike wounded eight Palestinians. Military officials said the strike targeted gunmen who were trying to attack Israeli forces that have been operating in a Hamas-dominated district of Gaza City since the weekend.
