Palestinian Snipers Kill Two Soldiers in Hebron
(Ha'aretz) Amos Harel - Two 19-year-old IDF military police soldiers - Corporal Keren Ya'akobi and Sergeant Maor Kalfon - were shot to death by Palestinian snipers at a roadblock near the Tomb of the Patriarchs in Hebron Thursday. An initial investigation of the attack suggests that two terrorists opened fire against the two soldiers at very close range, leaving them no chance to return fire. On November 15, 9 Israeli soldiers and 3 civilian security officers from Kiryat Arba were killed when ambushed near the same spot. Ya'akobi was the first female operational fatality since the start of the violence in September 2000.
