Two Palestinian youths have been killed after Israeli forces raided the occupied West Bank city of Nablus, officials told Al Jazeera.
The Palestinian Red Crescent Society on Friday said in a statement that its crews “transferred the bodies of two martyrs from the Old City of Nablus”.
The two young men killed were Hamza Maqbool and Khairi Shaheen, according to the Palestinian news agency Wafa.
Israeli forces cordoned off a house before fatally shooting the men, the agency said.
The men were suspected of carrying out a shooting attack against police this week, according to Israel’s military.
Three others were also injured, Al Jazeera TV reported.
