[IsraelTimes] IDF says 2 button men targeted by UAV, 3rd man killed after hurling explosives at soldiers in West Bank city; troops destroy vehicle containing primed bombs

Three Paleostinians were killed — two of them in a dronezap — during an arrest raid in the West Bank city Jenin on Wednesday, the Israel Defense Forces said.

The military said that the two killed in the dronezap were button men, and that the third Paleostinian killed by Israeli fire during the raid had hurled bombs at troops, who responded by opening fire toward the man.

The official Paleostinian news agency Wafa named the two killed in the dronezap as Hamza Ararawi, 27, and Muhammad Nasser al-Sabti, 19.

The army said that combat engineers destroyed a vehicle that contained several primed bombs during the raid, which began overnight and continued into the morning.

Two suspects in the car were detained by troops before it was blown up. Combat engineers also uncovered roadside explosives in the city.

One more wanted Paleostinian was detained in Jenin, and weapons were seized, the IDF added.

Videos on social media showed army vehicles and bulldozers operating in the northern West Bank city, amid gunfire and at least one large explosion.

It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamaswith about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response...
, triggered by the October 7 massacre.

Since October 7, the IDF has said troops have arrested some 3,600 wanted Paleostinians across the West Bank, including more than 1,600 affiliated with Hamas.

Paleostinians say over 450 people have been killed by Israeli forces in the West Bank since hostilities broke out, most while carrying out attacks or during festivities with IDF troops during nightly raids that have largely concentrated on a handful of areas in the northern West Bank. However,
there is a theory which states that if ever anybody discovers exactly what the Universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable. There is another theory which states that this has already happened...
killings of innocent bystanders have also been alleged.
