The Israeli army reported on Saturday that two Palestinians were killed in the occupied West Bank while allegedly preparing to carry out bombings. This incident occurred during the fourth day of an Israeli operation in the area. The Israeli army stated that two officers were injured in a vehicle explosion at a petrol station in the Gush Etzion settlement bloc. Additionally, the head of security in the Israeli settlement of Karmei Zur was involved in a car chase with a “terrorist” who had infiltrated the settlement compound.
