BETHLEHEM (Ma'an) -- Two Israeli settlers were shot and killed in a shooting between the illegal Israeli settlements of Itamar and Elon Moreh near Nablus in the northern West Bank on Thursday evening, an Israeli army spokesperson told Ma'an.
An Israeli army spokesperson said several shots were fired at the settlers' car from a passing vehicle, which fled to a nearby Palestinian village following the shooting.
Two adults were killed in the shooting, while Israeli media has reported that up to four children were in the car, but left unharmed.
The spokesperson said Israeli forces "are conducting a search of the area" to investigate the incident.

Meanwhile, the terrorists who burned an entire Palestinian family to death will never be prosecuted, and their entire settlement is being rewarded with special legal treatment.

(45,850 posts)The road has been closed to traffic. The IDF and Shin Bet have launched a manhunt for the perpetrators, including sweeps of the area, roadblocks and other methods. The area southeast of Nablus has been declared a closed military zone, and eyewitnesses report seeing UAVs and patrols flooding the area.
IDF forces are said to be operating in force in the nearby Palestinian village of Awarta.
