Israel’s prime minister gives order after military says it thwarted ‘terror attack’ by two armed Palestinians
Benjamin Netanyahu has ordered the army to prepare for a “very extensive” operation in the occupied West Bank after two Israeli soldiers and two Palestinians were killed in an exchange of fire near a checkpoint in Hebron.
Netanyahu said the military would go house to house and demolish homes in an operation on a scale unseen in the occupied West Bank for decades, after the Israeli military said it had thwarted a “terror attack” by two armed Palestinians on Friday, amid heightened tensions before next week’s election.
