(Times of Israel) Emanuel Fabian - Israel's Yamam counterterrorism unit entered Jenin on Thursday and "neutralized" two wanted Palestinian gunmen, after receiving intelligence about their whereabouts. Palestinian media identified the men as Yusuf Shreim, 29, of Hamas, and Nidal Khazem, 28, of Palestinian Islamic Jihad. Both were said to be senior members of their groups. The Israel Security Agency said Khazem was involved in advancing "significant terrorist activity," and Shreim was involved in the production of explosive devices and shooting at IDF forces. The Israeli unit killed a third Palestinian who attacked forces with a crowbar, and shot at several other gunmen. The Palestinian Authority said four people were killed and at least 23 others were hurt in the raid.
