Two Palestinians shot dead in Hebron, says Israeli military

Israeli forces shot dead two Palestinians who had allegedly attempted to open fire on them in Hebron, according to the Israeli army. 

The army said in a statement on Friday that one of the men got out of a vehicle in the occupied West Bank city and "opened fire on the [Israeli] forces present", while the other drove the vehicle.

No Israeli soldiers were wounded, the statement added. 

It comes after 36 people were arrested overnight in the West Bank, during mass raids carried out by Israeli forces. 

In Jenin, Israel's military stormed the city from multiple sides with soldiers, vehicles, and bulldozers, and demanded that Ibn Sina Hospital be evacuated. At least three Palestinians were killed and nine others wounded.
