Israel Kills Two More Palestinians As Violence Continues

Israel Kills Two More Palestinians As Violence Continues

Israeli forces killed two more Palestinians, one in the occupied West Bank and another in Jerusalem as the recent uptick in violence continued on Thursday.

The Palestinian Health Ministry said a man identified as Daoud Mahmoud Khalil Rayan was killed during an Israeli military raid in the village of Beit Duqqu in the occupied West Bank.

Rayan was killed after an altercation broke out between the Palestinians and Israeli forces that raided the home of a man accused of carrying out a car-ramming attack at a checkpoint near the city of Modiin.

During the operation in Beit Duqu, Israeli soldiers responded with riot dispersal means and fired at Palestinians hurling rocks and petrol bombs, the military said in a statement, adding that "hits were identified."

In a separate incident on Thursday, another Palestinian was shot dead in east Jerusalem after reportedly stabbing a police officer. The officer was lightly wounded.

Also on Thursday, Israel said it was removing checkpoints in and out of the city of Nablus.

Israel had imposed the restrictions weeks ago, clamping down on the city in response to a new group, known as the Lions' Den.
