Israeli forces killed two Palestinians in an attack on a bomb storage centre in the occupied West Bank on Sunday, officials and emergency workers said.
According to the Israeli military, soldiers raided a refugee camp on the northern side of the West Bank to destroy a militant command centre.
Bombs were detonated and explosives were reportedly hurled at Israeli forces by militants at Nour Shams camp, about two miles to the east of Tulkarem.
Dozens of explosives and bomb-making components were uncovered, the military said.
‘During the activity, suspects opened fire and hurled explosive devices at the forces who responded with live fire,’ it added in a statement.
The six-hour pre-dawn raid saw two Palestinians ‘killed by live Israeli bullets to the head’, the Palestinian health ministry said.
